Best WNBA Picks for Fever vs. Liberty

  • New York Liberty -4 (-110)
  • Caitlin Clark Under 20.5 Points (-106)
  • Game not to have two or more threes in first three minutes (-144 on FanDuel)

New York Liberty -4 (-110) The Fever have made notable enhancements this early in the season and are at home. However, Wetzel maintains that New York remains dominant, having bested the Aces and the Sky collectively by 39 points. Natasha Cloud, a newcomer to the Liberty, is averaging 20 points, 8.5 assists, and 5.0 rebounds per game.

“Cloud has seemingly filled every void the Liberty had — defense, downhill scoring, and backcourt grit,” Wetzel said. “Until they give us a reason to believe otherwise, this team is the class of the league.”

Caitlin Clark Under 20.5 points (-106) Clark has met this line only once out of three games this season. Following a recent off performance in Atlanta, with only 36.4% shooting and no success from the three-point range, her scoring expectations may need to be adjusted due to Cloud’s impressive defensive skills.

“Clark’s lines have been a little inflated at the start of the year with the expectation she would excel in her second season, and while that’s a reasonable assumption, it hasn’t materialized as the market presumes,” Wetzel commented. BetMGM has set Clark’s over/under at 21.5 points, but with -120 for the Under.

2x3 “No” (-144) This bet entails predicting whether there will be two or more 3-pointers within the initial three minutes of play. Notably, this wager had a 70% success rate in 2024 and has hit in 12 of 16 games in 2025 thus far.

“Even accounting for both teams’ propensity for 3-pointers, these odds appear overly short. Considering both teams’ shooting rates, I would set this line closer to -175,” Wetzel added.
