Charlie Cummings gives his top DraftKings WNBA Pick6 plays and projections for Tuesday’s WNBA slate.
Three games are scheduled across Tuesday’s WNBA slate. The action will kick off at 7:00 p.m. ET as the Mystics play the Fever. One of the more unique features on DraftKings this year is Pick6 Fantasy Basketball!
This article will examine my top Pick6 plays for today’s action, 6/3/25. You simply choose whether each set statistic will be more or less than the set number. With the stage set, here are my favorite picks on the WNBA slate.
Kelsey Mitchell Less Than 16.5 Points
Kelsey Mitchell is an excellent player in her own right and a great second option next to Caitlin Clark. The problem is that Caitlin Clark will spend this game against the Washington Mystics in street clothes. Things haven’t worked out well for the Fever in her absence, and Mitchell most of all.
It’s been tough going for her as the 1A option over the past two games. The two-time All-Star has scored 27 combined points on 8-of-31 shooting across the two losses. That first loss came against these Mystics, and I expect a repeat performance from the Washington defense.
Brittney Sykes is an excellent perimeter defender and will spend a lot of time guarding Mitchell. Sonia Citron also did an admirable job in their past matchup, chasing Mitchell all around the floor. If Indiana struggles to find an offensive flow again while Mitchell has to wear Sykes and Citron like backpacks, it will be another long night.
Gabby Williams More Than 20.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists
One of the best defensive forwards in the game, Gabby Williams, has taken a serious step on offense this year. The former All-Defense selection has shot 25.7% in six previous seasons on 1.8 threes per game. Now, she’s taking 4.9 per game and making 47.1%.
Perhaps these numbers have a fluky aspect, but the increase in volume matching the efficiency gives me hope. Either way, her offensive responsibilities have increased, and she’s responding well. Williams hands you a few rebounds and assists to boot and can certainly hit this number on any given night.
The number gets even juicier when you add in the lack of defensive quality the Wings possess. They’ll have to sell out to stop the Nneka Ogwumike/Skylar Diggins-Smith star pairing. That means plenty of looks for the role players, and Wiliams can capitalize.
Kiki Iriafen More Than 21.5 Points + Rebounds
As the fourth pick in this past draft, Kiki Iriafen has looked ready for the WNBA’s challenges. She’s big, physical, and has an infectious hustle. The USC alum has already double-doubled four times through seven games, and cleared this points + rebounds mark five times.
So, why the low line? The nature of this Fever frontcourt is the answer. Aliyah Boston is one of the best defensive centers in the game, and Natasha Howard can still defend well. But this was no problem for the rookie in their first matchup. She racked up 16 points on 7-of-13 shooting along with eight rebounds. Even if the scoring goes down a tick, she can get it done on the glass, and then some.
