Liberty vs Mercury WNBA Player Props: An All-Star Galore

Shubham Singh

The WNBA season is moving fast after the All-Star Break. The short interval barely gave the All-Star participants time to breathe. But now is the time to bring out your best to make a strong push towards the playoffs.

You bet we will see that attitude when the New York Liberty (16-6) takes on the Phoenix Mercury (15-8). Game’s greatest, like Sabrina Ionescu, Alyssa Thomas, and Breanna Stewart, will show what makes the superstars. Thus, here is a look at the player props for this blockbuster showdown.

New York Liberty WNBA Player Props

Sabrina Ionescu Props

Ionescu is having her streakiest season in a while. She is either making a bunch of shots or missing a heap of them. Still, an 18.4 PPG implies she is one of the best guard scorers in the league. However, she will certainly like to improve her 37.7% shooting.

The guard hasn’t crossed 15 in three straight games. So, isn’t she due for a big game here? The bookmakers are leaning in that direction, and so am I. Remember, she has scored just 9 and 16 in the two encounters against the Mercury. But I’d still I’d go “over” in this case, too.

Points- Ionescu Over 17.5 for -130 at BetMGM

Player BetMGM Odds
Ionescu O 17.5 Points-130
Fiebich O 8.5 Points-135
Copper O 13.5 Points-110
Thomas O 7.5 Rebounds+100

Leonie Fiebich Props

Fiebich is a crucial part of the defending champs’ set-up. She has been in terrific rhythm since coming back from EuroBasket. The guard has 12.5 PPG, including a season-high 21 points masterclass.

She has scored 15 or more in three of the last four games. I expect her to continue being a big factor and score at least 10 against the Mercury. Thus, going for “over” may be the safest of the three bets.

Points- Fiebich O 8.5 Points for -135 at BetMGM

Phoenix Mercury WNBA Player Props

Kahleah Copper Props

Copper is averaging 15.7 PPG, but the number is inflated due to a 33-point performance. Apart from that, she has figured in the 11-15 points range. Copper had a rather average outing against the Liberty during the last occasion, scoring 12 points in a 106-91 win.

She shot 5/14 from the field and committed 4 turnovers. The projected mark of 13.5 points here is just about right. I’d expect her to go just “Over” the mark despite a so-so 10-point in the last game against the Atlanta Dream.

Points- Copper Over 13.5 for -110 at BetMGM

Alyssa Thomas Props

Thomas has been one of the best all-around players in the league. She is one of the quirkiest scorers with that unique one-handed push shot. But more than that, her rebounding and playmaking make the Mercury an amazing two-way team.

In terms of rebounds, she is averaging 7.5 RPG, clearing 8 or more boards in three of the last five games. I expect her to go “Over” the rebounds mark here.

Rebounds- Thomas O 7.5 for +100 at BetMGM

Hi, I am Shubham. I am currently an NBA Predictions Writer on The Playoffs. I enjoy this job because it helps keep me in the loop about the game I love while fulfilling the pleasure I derive from stats. I got into NBA writing through social media interactions in the mid-2010s as I shared my takes on young talents such as D’Angelo Russell. I hope you enjoy reading my pieces as much as Dennis Rodman loved rebounding the basketball!
