We have three games on Friday night in the WNBA, beginning at 8 p.m. ET. All three games will be televised on ION across the country. Some fans will see Jewell Loyd and the Storm take on Kahleah Copper and the Sky, while others will watch the Mystics continue their three-game road trip against Arike Ogunbowale and the Wings. Lastly, the Lynx will try to snap the Liberty's three-game winning streak, who just played the Dream on Thursday night.
All three games feature many star players, making this an excellent opportunity for WNBA fans to bet on their favorite players' props on SuperDraft.
On SuperDraft, bettors can pick an over/under on two or more player props. If you hit both, you win up to 3X the amount wagered, and the return increases each time you add another prop. Think of it as a "Same Game Parlay." More legs equal more risk, but also a bigger potential payout. However, not all players have the same props, so keep that in mind as you pick your over/under plays and try to win some cash.

6X potential payout if all three legs hit
1. Sabrina Ionescu, G, Liberty vs. Lynx - OVER 6 assists
After playing Betnijah Laney's points prop for the past couple of games, we will switch it up and take Ionescu's assist prop. The two-time All-Star guard had a solid performance on Thursday night against the Dream, recording 12 points, nine assists, and four rebounds.
Ionescu has been dishing out the assists since returning from the All-Star break, averaging 8.4 dimes per game in her past five contests. She's averaging 5.9 assists per game this season, good for seventh in the WNBA. Ionescu shouldn't have any problems going OVER six assists tonight against the Lynx, who allow 21 assists per game to opponents (11th worst in the league). New York does a great job of moving the ball on offense, hence 24.4 assists per game (first in the WNBA) this season. Ionescu has gone OVER six assists in six out of her past 10 games and is averaging 7.1 assists per game at home this season.
2. Natasha Howard, F, Wings vs. Mystics - OVER 7.5 rebounds
Elena Delle Donne and Shakira Austin are still sidelined for the Mystics, so we'll take the OVER on Natasha Howard's rebounds. Howard has struggled a bit on the glass since returning from the WNBA All-Star break, averaging 6.3 rebounds per game in her past three games. The only game she posted double-digit boards was against the Sparks (11) last weekend.
However, SD users should not fret, as Howard has gone OVER 7.5 rebounds in six out of her past 10 games and averaging 9.5 rebounds per game against the Mystics this season. In the Wings' previous meeting against the Mystics on July 2, Howard only had six rebounds, thanks to Satou Sabally's and Teaira McCowan's presences on the glass. The same game script could play out tonight with Sabally and McCowan. However, we believe Howard will have an adequate bounce-back performance against the Mystics, who allow 28 defensive rebounds per game (10th most in the WNBA) this season.
3. Jewell Loyd, G, Storm @ Sky - UNDER 24.5 points
When these two teams played each other last weekend in Seattle, the Sky did a phenomenal job defending Loyd. They held the superb scorer to 12 points on 2-of-11 shooting from the field and 0-of-4 from three-point range. The Sky will try to do the same thing tonight at home, as Loyd is coming off a 32-point effort earlier this week against the Liberty.
Loyd leads the league in scoring at 24.7 points per game and three-pointers made per game (3.5). However, the Sky are one of the better teams at defending the three this year, allowing opponents to shoot just 32.7 percent. Chicago is also allowing the fewest made three-pointers per game (6.0) in the league. Based on those stats, it doesn't look good for Loyd to score 25 points tonight. The star guard has gone OVER 24.5 points in only four out of her past 10 games and four out of her past nine home games.
