WNBA All-Start Game 2024 Prop Bets

Team USA vs. WNBA All-Stars

  • Location: Footprint Center in Phoenix, AZ

  • Game Time & Date: 8:30 p.m. ET on Saturday, July 20

  • Coverage: ABC

  • Point Spread: Team USA -5.5 at +100 (odds via FanDuel Sportsbook)

If the past five All-Star Games are any indication, defense is not forgotten entirely or taken too seriously. Players may focus on just taking certain shots more than they would in a regular season game (i.e., Jewell Loyd attempted 21 three-pointers last year and made ten).

However, the two Team USA vs. Team WNBA box scores we could find showed that both games were played like any other, with one exception: everyone got a decent amount of playing time, and no one got more than 30 minutes (one player from each team did not play in 2021).

Most starters got around 20 minutes, as did a couple of reserves. Playing time for reserves ranged from 8:23 to 26 minutes.

Caitlin Clark, To Score 20+ Points at +220 (via FanDuel)

  • 4+ Made Threes +116 or 5+ at +225

  • 8+ assists at +190 or 10+ at +500

Clark will play a lot like she has all season. She has done a great job distributing the ball lately and will likely do the same in the All-Star game. Whether the game gets taken seriously or not, it would be surprising if she didn't record at least eight.

But if both teams come out ready for a fight, we can see Clark, Angel Reese, and a few of their teammates trying to prove they are just as good as the players on Team USA—so she'll record 10+.

As for her three-pointers, she's attempted at least seven in every game this month. It would not be shocking to see her take double-digit shots from deep since it's an exhibition. It would also not be surprising if Team USA did not defend her as hard.

So, she'll get more open looks and make more shots. If that's the case, then she will likely score 20+ points.

Angel Reese, To Score 15+ Points at +120 (via FanDuel)

  • 12+ Rebounds at +136

The league's leading rebounder is not going to disappoint the fans. They will want to see Reese crash the boards, and she will do just that. She's had 10+ in her last 18 games and 12+ in 11 of them. The only thing that may stop her is playing time.

But as one of the fresh, young faces of the WNBA, she'll probably log at least 25, if not 30, minutes.

While she hasn't been the most prolific scorer, she is averaging 13.5 points a night. But in a game like this, where the defense may be a little forgiving, it may be easier for her to find the basket another time or two. As long as this market has plus-money odds, it's worth serious thought.

Sabrina Ionescu, To Score 20+ Points at +114 (via FanDuel)

  • 4+ Made Threes at +134 or 5+ at +260

In her two previous All-Star games, Ionescu took every shot from three-point range (12 in 2023 and 10 in 2022; she made five and six). Since she is playing for Team USA, she may not focus solely on threes. But since she is known as a sharpshooter, the team may ask her to do just that.

Factor in the possibility that defense could be relaxed, making it easier to find open shots, and 4+ looks probable and 5+ certainly possible. If she does shoot well from behind the arc, she'll have no problem scoring 20+.

Kelsey Plum, 3+ Made Threes at -102 (via FanDuel)

  • Or 4+ Made Threes at +225

Plum leads the WNBA with 3.1 made three-pointers per game this season and is shooting a respectable 37.4% from behind the arc. In her two previous All-Star games, she attempted 11 and made five (2022) and attempted 10 but made 6.

As more of a role player for Team USA, the team may want her to focus on threes when she’s in the game. If so, three sounds like a conservative number. But going for 4+ and getting such a big jump in odds may be hard to resist.

A'ja Wilson, To Score 25+/30+ Points at +158/+430 (via FanDuel)

  • 10+ Rebounds at +126 or 12+ at +285

A'ja Wilson is a scoring and rebounding machine. Here is a player that can easily go for 20+ points and 10+ rebounds on any given night. Since she is averaging 27.2 ppg and 11.9 rebounds, 25+ points and 10+ rebounds may actually be conservative numbers for her. 

If given enough playing time, 30+ and 12+ may be conservative estimates.

There is certainly value in Wilson's props. No one would blame you for taking a flyer on any or all of them. However, it is worth pointing out that she has yet to produce much of a stat line in an All-Star game. Of the five she has played, her best was last year (20 points and 5 rebounds).

With that in mind, no one would blame you for skipping Wilson's props.
