WNBA Action on Thursday: A Clash of Titans and a Revenge Story
The WNBA regular season is drawing to a close, and Thursday night promises an exciting lineup of games. Three matches will take centre stage, with the Dallas Wings facing the Golden State Valkyries at 10 p.m. ET, and the Minnesota Lynx squaring off against the Las Vegas Aces in a highly anticipated encounter at the same time.
The Lynx-Aces game holds a special significance for Kayla McBride, who spent the first three seasons of her WNBA career with the Aces before moving to the New York Liberty in 2020 and then joining the Lynx this season. McBride has been in fine form this season, particularly against her former team, where she has scored over 2.5 made 3-pointers in five consecutive games.
In their previous encounters, McBride went 3-of-7 in the second meeting and 8-of-10 in the most recent battle against the Aces. This WNBA season, her over 2.5 made 3-pointers is one of the available player props, and betting enthusiasts can back her at +116 (1 unit) on FanDuel Sportsbook.

Meanwhile, the Aces have allowed the fourth-fewest 3-pointers per game (22.9), while the Lynx take the fifth-most 3-pointers (25.4). However, the Lynx have been impressive against the Aces this season, averaging 25 3-pointers in three contests and winning the last two games by a combined 84 points.
The game between the Phoenix Mercury and Washington Mystics is also scheduled for Thursday, starting at 7:30 p.m. ET. All three games will be broadcast on Prime Video, providing fans with an opportunity to catch all the action live.
In the meantime, McBride isn't getting usual minutes late in the game due to the large margins of victory. However, her performance against the Aces makes her a player to watch for WNBA betting. With a tight 2-point spread in Las Vegas on Thursday, McBride's over 2.5 made 3-pointers could be a bet worth considering.
