Fever vs Mystics Betting Pick
This game will be played at Entertainment & Sports Arena at 3:00 PM ET on Sunday, August 14, 2022.
One of the few games without playoff implications on Sunday in the WNBA will take place in Washington. The Indiana Fever are in last place and out of the playoff race, while the Washington Mystics are locked into the fifth seed going into the postseason. In our WNBA picks for Sunday, we examine Fever vs Mystics in a game that is meaningless for the standings but is still of interest from a betting perspective.
Why Bet The Under:
✅ The Mystics are not going to be quite at full strength for this game against the Fever. Myisha Hines-Allen is in health and safety protocols, and missed the last meeting between these teams this week. Add to that the fact that the Mystics have nothing to play for here, and we could see a less than stellar performance from the Mystics on the offensive end.
✅ The Indiana Fever simply lack the offensive firepower to put together a surprising performance to breach the over in this game. They average 77.8 points per game, the worst number in the WNBA. Against one of the league’s top rated defenses in Washington, there is no reason to believe the Fever will do their part to help this total.

✅ While nothing has been announced yet, there is the possibility we could see Elena Delle Donne’s minutes limited or that she is held out entirely. Heading into the playoffs, the health of Delle Donne will be one of the deciding factors in whether or not the Mystics can advance past the Seattle Storm in round one. As a result, her minutes could help this game go under the total.
Indiana Fever
The Indiana Fever have really hurt arguments about expansion in the WNBA with their performance this season. While the league is set to expand in the coming seasons, the Fever have played a level of basketball that has not been of a professional quality. They have lost 17 straight games, and will look to avoid an 18th straight loss to end the season here.
For the Fever to challenge for an upset in this game, their young players will need to step up in the extended minutes they should get. NaLyssa Smith and Destanni Henderson are the future of this franchise, and some flashes of brilliance from both could give the Fever a chance against a Mystics team with nothing to gain from this game.
Washington Mystics
The Washington Mystics have locked themselves into the fifth seed in the WNBA playoffs. That means a road trip to Seattle to face the Storm in the first round. Before that, though, the Mystics will face the hapless Fever in the final game of their regular season. The question going into this game is how much the Mystics will put into this matchup.
Realistically, there is no reason for the Mystics to play their top players in this game. Against a Fever team whose players are likely looking to justify their roster spots in the future, the Mystics should not risk injury for players like Elena Delle Donne and Ariel Atkins. But the plan for the Mystics roster remains to be seen going into this regular season finale.
