We have reached the midway point of the WNBA regular season, and we are seeing a very definite split in the standings.
There are basically 3 teams battling it out for the #1 seed right now, while spots 4 through 6 also look to be set in stone.
My Analysis
Below those 6 teams, we have a perfect battle going on for the 2 remaining playoff spots.
It is going to be interesting to see if the current standings hold in the second half, or if some team in the lower half of the standings can make a push and force their way into one of the higher seeds.
We will be keeping an eye on how things play out, but for now, let’s take a look at the top betting games we like this week + the latest odds provided by MyBookie Sportsbook.
^Connecticut Sun at Phoenix Mercury
Monday, July 1, 2024, 10:00 PM | This is the second meeting between these teams this season, and Phoenix will be hoping that this one is a little more competitive.
The Sun won that one by a score of 70-47, but that one did take place in their own building. Going on the road should not be a huge problem for them, though, as they are 6-2 away from this season.
The Mercury are 9-9 this season, but it has been their play on the road that has killed them to this point.
Home games are a different matter, as the Mercury have been good on their home court, going 7-3.

Minnesota Lynx at New York Liberty
Tuesday, July 2, 2024, 7:00 PM | As we mentioned at the top of this piece, there are 3 teams at the top that are pulling away from the rest.
Minnesota and New York represent 2 of those 3 teams. It is New York that leads the way right now, leading the other 2 by a game and a half.
The Liberty are on a hot run of form right now, winning 4 in a row and 9 of their last 10.
The Lynx will be looking to close the gap and will be hoping for a repeat of their earlier meeting with the Liberty, which they won 84-67. The Liberty should be a good deal more competitive at home, where they are 9-1.
^Connecticut Sun at Minnesota Lynx
Thursday, July 4, 2024, 8:00 PM, PRIME VIDEO | I usually like to try and cover as many teams as possible in the preview for the week, but it is impossible to ignore this game, as it is once again two of the top teams in the league going head-to-head.
We can only hope that this one is as exciting as the previous meetings between these two teams.
It was the Sun winning that one 83-82, but it took overtime for them to get that win. They are going to have a tough time matching that win on the road in Minnesota.
^Chicago Sky at Seattle Storm
Friday, July 5, 2024, 10:00 PM, ION | Given that only 4 teams miss out on the playoffs in the WNBA, finishing below that cut line is nothing short of disastrous.
The Chicago Sky are below that line right now, albeit just a half game out of the final spot. They have a tough trip ahead of them on Friday, though, as they will be travelling to Seattle as they try to improve on their 3-4 road record.
Seattle is playing well right now, coming into this one on a 3-game win streak, and with 7 wins in their last 10 games.
