WNBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks (8/4/19): WNBA DFS Advice for DraftKings and FanDuel

Justin Carter's top daily fantasy WNBA lineup picks for 8/4/19. Expert WNBA DFS advice, sleepers & player recommendations for DraftKings and FanDuel.

It's Sunday, and we have three games on today's schedule. Based on recent results, Connecticut/New York is going to go heavily in Connecticut's favor, but there's an exciting Storm/Sparks contest followed by the incredibly injured Phoenix Mercury hosting the Washington Mystics.

In this article, I'll be providing you with some daily fantasy WNBA lineup picks for DraftKings and FanDuel on 8/4/19. These lineups picks will range from elite players to mid-priced options and value plays.

WNBA - DFS Guards

DeWanna Bonner (G, Phoenix Mercury) – vs Washington Mystics (DK: $11,100, FD: $8,000)

Let's check out the injury report for the Mercury:

Yikes. Even if Griner goes, the team will have seven players in uniform. A hobbled Griner's not going to be counted on too much offensively, which leaves us looking at a game where the ball just repeatedly goes to DeWanna Bonner. Bonner scored 25 points when Phoenix played Washington last week, and that was with Griner in the lineup. She had 22 points, seven rebounds, and five assists the first time these teams played. Bonner's the highest priced player on this slate, but it's deserved and she could very well have the highest scoring fantasy game of anyone on Sunday.

Jewell Loyd (G, Seattle Storm) – @ Los Angeles Sparks (DK: $6,300, FD: $6,000)

Loyd is back. She's a better value on DraftKings than on FanDuel, but with her upside she's worth a play on either site (as long as she suits up and isn't a late scratch for rest purposes).

Loyd's first game back from injury shouldn't count since she played just nine minutes, but in the past two games she's averaging 10 points. She's ramping up her offensive usage, and on Sunday she gets a matchup with a Sparks team that's allowing the third-highest three-point field goal percentage this season. We should see Loyd start to bounce back to her pre-injury level of production soon, and by soon I mean that Sunday offers her a really good chance to put up strong numbers.

 

WNBA - DFS Forwards

Alysha Clarke (F, Seattle Storm) – @ Los Angeles Sparks (DK: $7,500, FD: $5,800)

I was going to recommend Connecticut's Jonquel Jones, but that game has too much "Sun lead by 30 at the half and don't need to play their starters in the second half" potential. Jones could be the best forward in this slate because of this matchup, but I'm just scared away by blowout potential.

Clarke checks off a lot of my DFS boxes. She's got a pretty good shot volume. She contributes on the glass and as a passer. She's got at least one steal in four straight games. And the defense she's facing has had some struggles this year. Granted, the Sparks have been playing better on that end lately, but Clarke has a good chance to produce because of her role and I still lean towards not fully buying into Los Angeles' defensive improvement.

Camille Little (F, Phoenix Mercury) – vs Washington Mystics (DK: $5,000, FD: $4,800)

I kinda wanted to take a big risk and recommend Los Angeles' Maria Vadeeva here, but her minutes in her first game back with the team just weren't at a level where I feel comfortable.

I'm going with Little here, mainly because of the Mercury's whole "having only six or seven players" thing. I like her more if Griner's out, but even if Griner plays, Little's the only other player available on this team with forward eligibility. She's going to have to play most of the game.

Little has played 20+ minutes three times this year. She has double-digit points in all three games and five or more rebounds in two of those. Opportunity is important when it comes to projecting production, and Little's going to get opportunities here. It's also worth noting that the Mystics have been struggling defensively over the past month or so.
