The chance to end my best bet mini-slump was snatched away from me on Friday, as the New York Liberty had plane issues and their game (which they were going to lose) against the Dallas Wings was postponed. No problem – I’ve got another winner tomorrow. For my best bet for Friday (July 17th): WNBA Predictions, we’re off to Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana. Let’s get this money!
Best Bet for Friday (July 17th): WNBA Predictions
Seattle Storm vs Indiana Fever
Start Time: 7:30 PM EST
The Indiana Fever are the ones who will get me back into the winning column tomorrow, as they host the putrid Seattle Storm. The Storm’s 6-20 record is the worst in the WNBA, as is their 2-12 road record. Plus, the Fever beat the Storm by 11 in their only other meeting this season, which was also played in Indianapolis.
While Indiana isn’t a world beater or a legit title contender this season, they are an improved team, enjoying their best season since 2015, which was a very long time ago. And it’s not solely the Caitlin Clark Show, as she only leads the team in assists and free throws made (and turnovers). And perhaps missed calls from the referees
After crunching the numbers, my line is Indiana -12.5, so the Fever will not only win tomorrow night, but they’ll cover the spread.
Best Bet: Indiana -8.5 (-115)
Best Bet Overall 2026 Record: 109-87 (56%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): -($104.69)
Return on Investment: -1%
