WNBA Same Game Parlay: Liberty vs Fever Picks & Prediction

The WNBA All-Star week gave the athletes a much-needed break. But time to get back to work! The second half of the season is about the playoff push. The Indiana Fever (12-11) has been unable to get going as Caitlin Clark has been sidelined during 10 games.

She will likely miss this big-time clash against the New York Liberty (15-6). NY had a tough period as they were missing Jonquel Jones, but they are back to their winning ways, with 3 straight victories. Can the Fever survive the Liberty without CC? Find my favorite Same Game Parlay for the match.

WNBA Same Game Parlay Pick #1- Total

Both the Liberty and the Fever are top-notch offensive squads. The Liberty has scored 87 or more in three of the last five games. On the other hand, the Fever has notched 85 or more in most games recently.

Defensively, NY is miles ahead of Fever, limiting teams to fewer than 80 points in five straight games. But I see the Fever breaking this trend. Overall, I expect the score to go “Over” here and both teams scoring at least 82 here.

Liberty vs Fever Total Prediction: O 163.5

Here is an overview of my selections:

Picks	BetMGM Odds
Total O 163.5	-110
Ionescu O 18.5 Points	-110
Cloud O 0.5 triples	-110

WNBA Same Game Parlay #2- Sabrina Ionescu

Ionescu is having a tough shooting year (37.9% FG). Still, she is averaging a brilliant 18.7 PPG. She has scored 15 or fewer in two straight games after scoring 20 or more in three straight games.

Ionescu is tallying 24 PPG in three games against the Fever, with a season-high of 34. At any rate, I believe she will score at least 19 here, so opting for that pick here.

WNBA Same Game Parlay #3- Natasha Cloud

Cloud has significantly cooled down after a hot start. The guard began with an average of 18.7 PPG in the first three games, nailing at least 1 triple in the first five games. Then she scored in single digits during 11 straight games. During the period, Cloud had 0 triples in six games. But lately, she is recovering her rhythm. She has nailed 2 3-pointers in four of the last five games. Overall, I believe she will make at least one here.

Final Word on Liberty vs Fever Picks

All these picks aren’t that risky considering the trends. However, they aren’t the safest picks either. Overall, I’d rate them “moderate”. The Liberty’s defense can curb the Fever’s offensive production, but the latter has shown tremendous adjustments on offense.

Meanwhile, Ionescu is one of the biggest scoring threats, while Cloud can be expected to have a decent night against the somewhat vulnerable Indiana. Overall, if you don’t want to go for the SGP, I’d be most interested in the Cloud pick.
