- The Fever have finally had some time off recently, having played their last game on Sunday.
- Washington, meanwhile, is on the second leg of a back-to-back, which will work against them in this contest.
The Indiana Fever and Washington Mystics have both struggled mightily to start the 2024 WNBA season. They are a combined 2-19 on the year so far, but one of them has to win on Friday night when they face off at Capital One Arena. Here, you will find our WNBA betting picks for Fever vs Mystics, as Caitlin Clark aims to lead the Fever to a victory over a winless Washington team.
This game will be played at Capital One Arena at 7:30 PM ET on Friday, June 7, 2024.
Indiana Fever
It has not been the start to the season that the Indiana Fever had hoped for. Indiana comes into Friday night with a record of 2-9, with a lack of experience and a brutal early-season schedule combining to make life tough on the most-hyped team in the league entering 2024. But the Fever have a genuine chance to get back into the win column on Friday, as they face a winless team with a significant rest advantage.
Clark and the Fever have not taken the floor since Sunday, when they were demolished by the New York Liberty on the second leg of a back-to-back. But they have since had five days off, which should mean some practice time and some time to recuperate heading into this Fever vs Mystics game. That rest should do them a world of good after a bumpy start to the season, as the Fever enter this game as favorites.
Washington Mystics
The Washington Mystics are still the lone winless team in the WNBA this season. They have lost 10 straight games to start the year and their reward for that is having to play for a second night in a row after losing to the Chicago Sky on Thursday. Being at such an extreme rest disadvantage should work against the Mystics, though they could have a key reinforcement for tonight’s contest.
Shakira Austin could make her return to the Mystics lineup tonight after missing some time due to injury. If she does come back for this game, she would be able to provide some more resistance to Aliyah Boston in the paint for Indiana. In any case, Washington needs to find a way to score more consistently, as they rank last in the league in scoring at 72.5 points per game.
