Before we dive into the Connecticut Sun vs. Minnesota Lynx game let’s review the rules for the FanDuel single game showdown contest.

FanDuel Single Game Contest Rules

Here are the FanDuel single game contest rules. You have $60,000 to utilize on five players from either team. However, one of those players will be designated as your team MVP. The MVP accumulates 2x times the standard FanDuel fantasy points value.

The remaining four players in your lineup will be one star and three flex plays. The star player will receive 1.5x the standard fantasy points value. The final three flex positions will receive the standard FanDuel points value. Having stated that, it is highly important for you to identify the correct player for your MVP position if you hope to win a large field GPP (guaranteed prize pool) FanDuel single game contest.

FanDuel WNBA DFS Player Selections

MVP-Napheesa Collier, Forward, Minnesota Lynx $10,000

Minnesota Lynx forward Napheesa Collier arrives at tomorrow’s WNBA playoff game with the Connecticut Sun playing exceptional basketball from a statistical perspective. Let’s take a look at Collier’s game data from the 2024 WNBA regular season to better shed light on my previous statement.

In the 34 games that Napheesa Collier played for the Minnesota Lynx this season, talented Lynx forward Napheesa Collier averaged an impressive 20.4 points, 9.7 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 1.9 steals, and 1.4 blocks a game.

More specifically, Collier compiled 26 points, 11 rebounds, three assists, two steals, and one block in the Sun’s playoff win over the Lynx.

Considering the elevated importance of tomorrow night’s WNBA playoff game, I fully expect Napheesa Collier to continue her outstanding play versus the Connecticut Sun.  For that specific reason, I am backing talented Minnesota Lynx forward Napheesa Collier at the MVP position for this one game FanDuel WNBA DFS Showdown contest.

Now that we have determined how Thomas played in the regular season, let’s shift our focus to the 2024 WNBA playoffs. In the six games that Alyssa Thomas has played for the Connecticut Sun in the 2024 WNBA playoffs, Thomas is averaging a robust 43.3 FanDuel points a game. It has to be said, those are the type of DFS numbers I need to see from a player that I select as a flex play for a WNBA FanDuel showdown contest.

In summary, I like Connecticut Sun forward Alyssa Thomas’s chances of continuing to perform at a high level versus the Minnesota Lynx in Game 3 of this WNBA playoff series.

Minnesota Lynx vs Connecticut Sun Prediction

I’ve been on the Connecticut Sun a lot this season because they’re just solid across the board and play hard. The problem is the Sun are 4-8 ATS in their last 12 games as an underdog. The Minnesota Lynx have played their best ball at home this season, and the offense has been scary good at times. If those shots are falling at a solid clip again, the Sun just can’t keep up. Give me another point or two and I’d jump on the Sun. At home, I have to lean toward the Lynx and the reasonable line.

The value is with the Minnesota Lynx and the free bucket, as they’ve been way too consistent this season and have proven they can win on the road. The Lynx are 5-0 ATS and 5-0 SU in their last 5 games as an underdog. I just have too much respect for the Connecticut Sun to believe they’re going to go down this quietly. This series has been physical and chippy, and that’s where the Sun usually thrive. I’d lay the small number with the Sun to force a game 5.

Connecticut Sun vs Minnesota Lynx Prediction

The Minnesota Lynx got a bounce back win in game 2, and it’s attractive seeing them in the underdog role. This will be just the fifth time since August where the Lynx are an underdog. With that said, you can argue the Sun have been the better team in this series through 2 games, as they won game 1 and had their chances in game 2. The Sun have won 7 of the last 10 games against the Lynx. The Sun are 6-2-1 ATS in their last 9 games as a favorite. This series has gotten chippy, and the Sun are a physical team that feels in its element. I’ll lay the bucket.

Cecilia Zandalasini is questionable for the Minnesota Lynx due to a quadriceps injury. Tiffany Mitchell is out for the Connecticut Sun due to an illness, while Tyasha Harris is questionable with an ankle injury.

Minnesota Lynx vs Connecticut Sun Prediction

The Connecticut Sun are a legit title contender that plays hard at both ends of the floor, so it wouldn’t be shocking to see another win. The Sun have won 5 of the last 6 games against, the Lynx. However, the Lynx have been too good and too consistent to think they’ll lose another playoff game at home. This is a must win for the Lynx. The line is reasonable, and the Lynx should have a better offensive showing. I’ll lay the points with the Lynx.

I think highly of the Connecticut Sun and wouldn’t be surprised if they steal one of these first two games. The Sun have won 6 of the last 8 games against the Lynx. The problem is, the Suns are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games as an underdog. The Lynx are the hottest team in the field with just 2 losses since July 17 and their offense is on another level right now. I’m not excited to step in front of the Lynx as long as the line is reasonable. I’ll lay the somewhat soft number with the Lynx in game 1.

Connecticut Sun vs Indiana Fever Prediction

The Indiana Fever couldn’t play any worse than they did in game 1, and I’m going to expect a better effort from Caitlin Clark. The problem is it may not be enough. The Fever have fallen off a cliff defensively these last couple of weeks, and it’s led to spotty results. The Fever are also 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games when underdogs of 5 or more points. The Connecticut Sun have covered each of their last 6 games when favorites of 5 or more points. I’d love to see a home playoff game in Indiana with Clark going crazy, but there’s a lot leaning toward a comfortable Sun victory. I’ll lay the buckets with Connecticut.

Connecticut Sun vs Indiana Fever Prediction

The Indiana Fever are a dangerous team in a short series because of Clark, and oddsmakers are giving them the best chance at a first round upset. The Fever also beat the Sun a month ago as 4 point underdogs. The problem here is the Fever have cooled off these last couple of weeks and the playoffs are a different beast. The Fever are still young, while the Sun are stacked with veterans who have not only been in the playoffs but have had success. I’d need an extra bucket or two to pull the trigger with the road team. Give me the Sun and the soft line.

How important has talented forward Alyssa Thomas been to the Connecticut Sun this season? Let’s review Thomas’s relevant game data to answer that question.

In the 40 games that Alyssa Thomas played for the Connecticut Sun in the 2024 WNBA regular season, Thomas averaged a robust 10.6 points, 8.4 rebounds, 7.9 assists, 1.7 steals, and 0.5 blocks a game.

Looking closer at the data just presented, in the 40 games that Alyssa Thomas played for the Connecticut Sun in the 2024 WNBA regular season, Thomas averaged an impressive 35.9 Draftkings points a game.

More recently, in the Minnesota Lynx’s 78-76 victory over the Connecticut Sun four days ago, Alyssa Thomas played exceptionally well. Let me be more specific. In the Sun’s loss to the Lynx just mentioned, Thomas tallied 18 points, eight rebounds, ten assists, and two steals.

From a general matchup perspective, I like Alyssa Thomas’s chances of playing at a high level in this game. Why? Alyssa Thomas will face an Indiana Fever defense that has struggled on the defensive side of the basketball all season.

Through 40 games played in the 2024 WNBA regular season, the Indiana Fever are ranked an abysmal 11th in total team defensive rating (107.5), tenth in total opponent fast break points allowed a game (11.3), and ninth in total points allowed off turnovers a game (16.7). What did we learn from the data just presented? Clearly, the Indiana Fever are not a good defensive basketball team entering tomorrow afternoon’s first game of the 2024 WNBA playoffs.

I fully expect Alyssa Thomas to continue her outstanding play versus a vulnerable Indiana Fever defense tomorrow afternoon. For that specific reason, I am rolling with Alyssa Thomas at the captain position for this one game WNBA DFS Showdown slate.

Flex Plays

Caitlin Clark, Guard, Indiana Fever $10,400

Indiana Fever rookie point guard Caitlin Clark has wasted little time showing basketball fans that she belongs in the WNBA. Let’s review Clark’s player data from the 2024 WNBA regular season to better shed light on my previous statement.

In the 40 games that Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark played for the Indiana Fever this season, Clark averaged 19.2 points, 5.7 rebounds, 8.4 assists, 1.3 steals, and 0.7 blocks a game.

Additional flex plays I like in this WNBA matchup (Draftkings price noted): Brionna Jones, Forward (Connecticut Sun) $8,000: Aliyah Boston, Forward (Indiana Fever) $8,600: DeWanna Bonner, Guard (Connecticut Sun) $7,400.

Connecticut Sun vs Chicago Sky Prediction

The Connecticut Sun should be big favorites, as they’re not only the better team, but health is on their side. The Chicago Sky are loaded with injuries and have little chance if Carter is out along with everybody else. However, while the Sun are playing for the third seed, it’s the Sky who are still fighting for that last playoff seed. This is a lot of points for a team that still has something to play for. Also, the Sun are 3-5 ATS in their last 8 games as a double-digit favorite. I’ll grab the points with the Sky, even if their situation isn’t ideal.

Connecticut Sun vs Minnesota Lynx Injury Report

The Connecticut Sun will continue to be without Tiffany Mitchell. Dorka Juhasz is questionable for the Lynx due to a foot injury.

Connecticut Sun vs Minnesota Lynx Prediction

The Minnesota Lynx are as hot as any team in the league and probably should be favored. However, the Connecticut Sun have won 4 straight games aginst the Lynx and 8 of the last 10 games against them overall. This will also be just the fourth time this season where the Sun are home dogs, so you don’t get these chances often. I’ll grab the free bucket, given the way the Sun have owned the Lynx over the years.

Las Vegas Aces vs Connecticut Sun Prediction

The Las Vegas Aces are always going to get the benefit of the doubt at home, and they are putting things together finally. However, the Connecticut Sun are too good to turn down free points, and you don’t get spots like this often. In fact, this is just the fifth time since July where the Sun are an underdog. The Sun aren’t flashy and don’t have the household names of other teams, but they’re consistent and have proven themselves on the road. I’m going to take a shot in the dark with the Sun and the free buckets just because they’re a threat to win each and every night.

Before we dive into the Phoenix Mercury vs. Connecticut Sun game let’s review the rules for the Draftkings single game showdown contest.

Draftkings Single Game Showdown Contest Rules

You have $50,000 to utilize on five players from either team. However, one of those players will be designated as your team captain. The captain accumulates 1.5 times the standard fantasy points. Additionally, the captain is 1.5 times the standard cost of the flex position.

The remaining four players in your lineup will receive the standard fantasy points. Having stated that, it is highly important for you to identify the correct player for your captain position if you hope to win a large field DFS GPP (guaranteed prize pool) showdown contest.

If you have additional questions regarding the rules for the single game showdown contest, I recommend that you check out the Draftkings website for more details.

*I recommend that all readers review the starting lineups for both teams prior to setting your DFS lineup for this one game slate.

Here are my Draftkings picks for this evening’s Phoenix Mercury vs. Connecticut Sun matchup.

Draftkings WNBA Showdown Picks

Captain-Alyssa Thomas, Forward, Connecticut Sun $10,000

Connecticut forward Alyssa Thomas has been the leader in the paint that the Connecticut Sun have needed to win games this season. Having stated that, how has the talented Connecticut forward been playing from a statistical perspective? Let’s review Thomas’s recent game data to answer that question.

In the 35 games that Alyssa Thomas has played for the Connecticut Sun in the 2024 WNBA regular season, Thomas is averaging 10.5 points, 8.8 rebounds, 7.8 assists, and 1.6 steals a game.

Looking closer at the data just presented, in the 35 games that Alyssa Thomas has played for the Sun in the 2024 WNBA regular season, Thomas averaged a whopping 32.6 Draftkings points a game.

I also like Alyssa Thomas’s matchup this evening. Why? Thomas will face a Phoenix Mercury team that has been vulnerable on the defensive side of the basketball this season. Through 35 games played in the 2024 WNBA regular season, the Phoenix Mercury are currently ranked ninth in total team defensive rating (104.4), 12th in defensive rebound percentage (68%), and 12th in total opponent second chance points allowed a game (12.6). Clearly, the defensive data just presented tells us that the Phoenix Mercury are not a good defensive basketball team.

In my opinion, Connecticut forward Alyssa Thomas is the most likely player to post the most fantasy points in tonight’s game. For that reason, I am rolling with Alyssa Thomas as my captain for this Draftkings WNBA Showdown slate.

Flex Plays

Kahleah Copper, Guard, Phoenix Mercury $9,000

Phoenix guard Kahleah Copper has been one of the few bright spots for a Phoenix Mercury team that has struggled at times this season. Let’s take a look at Copper’s recent game data to better shed light on my previous statement.

In the 35 games that Kahleah Copper has played for the Phoenix Mercury in the 2024 WNBA regular season, Copper has averaged a robust 21.6 points, 4.6 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 0.8 steals a game.

It should be noted that the Phoenix Mercury have listed Copper as questionable on the team’s official injury report. Make sure to check the starting lineups for both teams prior to finalizing your lineups for this one game WNBA slate.

Additional players I like to play well this evening (Draftkings price noted): Diana Taurasi, Guard (Phoenix Mercury) $7,800: Sophie Cunningham, Guard (Phoenix Mercury) $6,400.

Phoenix Mercury vs Connecticut Sun Injury Report

The Phoenix Mercury will be without Charisma Osborne and Rebecca Allen, while Kahleah Copper is questionable with a back injury. The Connecticut Sun will be without Tiffany Mitchell.

Phoenix Mercury vs Connecticut Sun Prediction

The Phoenix Mercury are falling apart with losses in 7 of their last 10 games, and now they could be without Kahleah Copper, which doesn’t help matters. I want nothing to do with the Mercury in this spot. The Connecticut Sun still have a shot at the second seed, so there’s motivation to get this game. Also, the Sun have won all 3 games against the Mercury this season by double digits. I have no choice but to lay the points with the Sun on the road.

It is noteworthy that these two teams faced off two days ago. In that WNBA regular season matchup, Sun forward Alyssa Thomas played exceptionally well. Let me be more specific. In the Connecticut Sun’s 79-67 win over the Los Angeles Sparks earlier in the week, Connecticut forward Alyssa Thomas tallied 12 points, ten rebounds, 11 assists, two steals, and one block.

From a general matchup perspective, I like Alyssa Thomas’s chances of playing at a high level in this game. Why? Alyssa Thomas will face a Los Angeles Sparks defense that has struggled on the defensive side of the basketball all season.

Through 35 games played in the 2024 WNBA regular season, the Los Angeles Sparks are currently ranked an abysmal tenth in total team defensive rating (106.3), ninth in total opponent fast break points allowed a game (10.8), and 11th in total points allowed in the paint a game (38.4).

Dearica Hamby, Forward, Los Angeles Sparks $9,400

Los Angeles forward Dearica Hamby has been one of the few bright spots for a Los Angeles Sparks team that has suffered through a disappointing season in 2024.

In the 35 games that forward Dearica Hamby has played for the Los Angeles Sparks this season, Hamby has averaged 17.3 points, 9.4 rebounds, 3.5 assists, and 1.6 steals a game.

Los Angeles Sparks vs Connecticut Sun Prediction

The Connecticut Sun are the better, healthier team, and they could easily blow the doors off. Heck, the Sun just beat the Sparks a couple of days ago by 12 points. With that said, the second meeting in as many days is usually more competitive. Also, the Sun are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games as a double-digit favorite. The Los Angeles Sparks are 12-4 ATS in their last 16 games as a double-digit underdog. I’ll take a stab with the Sparks and the points.

Los Angeles Sparks vs Connecticut Sun Prediction

The Los Angeles Sparks continue to lose games ugly, and their injury situation isn’t improving. The Connecticut Sun have treated the Sparks like a punching bag over the years, winning 10 straight games and covering 8 of those games. The Sun are comfortably the better team, and they need to take advantage of games like this as they compete for the second seed. I have no choice but to side with the Sun. The Sparks are awful.
