I'll be providing daily fantasy lineup picks for the WNBA this season here at RotoBaller. In addition, I'll be sprinkling in some basic betting picks. Not going to get complicated since there's limited space in this piece, but I'll throw you a bet or two each day that I like and because I think this is important, that I'll be making myself.

In this article, I'll be providing you with some daily fantasy WNBA lineup picks for DraftKings and FanDuel on 6/25/22.

WNBA DFS Lineup Picks: Forwards

Tina Charles (Phoenix Mercury) - @ DAL - DK: $10,900, FD: $8,400

Sometimes Tina Charles will struggle with her efficiency, but usually she'll just go out there and destroy opposing defenses. Last time she faced Dallas, she did the latter. 27 points on 11-for-22 shooting. Nine rebounds. Three assists. One block. The Wings had no answer for her and I have no reason to think anything has changed in the week since that game. Expect Phoenix to continue feeding Charles the ball.

Myisha Hines-Allen (Washington Mystics) - @ LV - DK: $6,600, FD: $5,300

Hines-Allen has been a mystery all season. After averaging 17 points per game in 2020, she dropped to 12.9 last year, which made sense because the Mystics didn't need her to score as much. But this year, the numbers kept dropping. She's currently down to 7.8 points on 39.6% shooting and 4.7 rebounds per game.

So, why recommend her?

Because things might be changing, just a little bit.

Her minutes are up over the last two games and she's now scored in double figures in two consecutive contests, just the third time this season that's happened. She's also averaging seven rebounds over this set of games. MHA might finally be turning a corner.

Teaira McCowan (Dallas Wings) - @ DAL - DK: $5,800, FD: $5,500

McCowan is coming off of a 12-point, 10-rebound game, which she did in just 15 minutes of play. And that's the upside with McCowan: she can do a whole bunch of stuff with limited minutes. Last time she played the Mercury, she played a season-high 25 minutes, going 7-for-10 with 18 points, 10 rebounds, one assist and one block. Will Dallas go to her again this time? We'll see, as the team's rotations have been weird, but McCowan is definitely a little undervalued when you factor in her upside.

WNBA DFS Lineup Picks: Guards

Arike Ogunbowale (Dallas Wings) - vs PHO - DK: $11,100, FD: $7,700

The last time Arike played against the Mercury, she scored 24 points on 9-for-18 shooting and added three rebounds and six assists. Her volume has been high lately and she's scored 20 or more points in four of the last five games, and has 39 or more DraftKings points in all four of those contests. Ogunbowale has the highest ceiling of any guard on this slate.

Ariel Atkins (Washington Mystics) - @ LV - DK: $7,900, FD: $6,700

Atkins has been playing pretty well lately, though a 1-for-11 night from three in her last game was disappointing. Still, she's scored in double figures in all but two games this season and her last game against the Aces went well, with Atkins scoring 13 points on 5-for-11 shooting (3-for-6 from three) with eight rebounds and three steals.

Diamond DeShields (Phoenix Mercury) - @ DAL - DK: $7,600, FD: $5,700

While her numbers have been down the last two games, I'm playing DeShields because the last time she faced Dallas, she had 14 points, three rebounds, four assists and two steals, filling up the stat sheet. Shey Peddy cuts into her minutes too much for DeShields to be a slam-dunk play in this one, but I like the matchup-based upside, plus I think for a GPP, she's intriguing because I imagine a lot of people are scared off by her last couple of contests.

Yesterday's Results: 3-1

Some quick ML picks

Alright, so I've got some real-life commitments this afternoon so instead of digging into spreads or O/Us, I'm just going to keep it simple. Here are my picks for the ML today. I'll briefly note afterward why I made any non-favorite picks.

Wings

Storm

Aces

Oops, looks like I went all-in on favorites here. I think you can take the Mercury side on the spread in Mercury/Wings, but I'm much more confident in the Wings winning that one than I am in the Mercury. I would also consider taking the underdog on the spread in Mystics/Aces, but I'll take the Storm both straight up and against the spread.
