The first full week of WNBA action is in the books, and trends are beginning to emerge across the league.

My WNBA player props and WNBA picks for Sunday, May 25, key in on three of the W’s best rebounders, including a promising rookie, a high-profile Chicago forward, and the reigning MVP.

Today’s best WNBA player props bets

Angel Reese Over 12.5 rebounds (-135 at bet365)

Angel Reese led the W in rebounds per game last season with 13.1, and she pulled down the second-most rebounds per game in a single season, falling just five shy of A’Ja Wilson’s record set in the same season.

Reese could have become the single-season rebounds leader had it not been for a wrist injury that cost her the final six games of the campaign.

There’s been no sophomore slump to speak of thus far, as Reese leads the W in boards per game at 14.5 through the first two games of the 2025 campaign. Most impressively, her 29 total rebounds have come in just 52 total minutes.

Reese’s 13.1 rebounds per game in 2024 came in 32.5 minutes per game. Over the first two games of the 2025 season, she’s played only 26 minutes per game due to a pair of blowout losses.

The Sky have lost their respective first two games of the 2025 season by 25 and 35 points, but they are just 5.5-point underdogs to the 1-3 Sparks. Sunday’s matchup should be a more competitive affair for Reese and the Sky, and I expect her to corral at least 13 rebounds as Chicago searches for its first win of the 2025 season.

Kiki Iriafen double-double (+100 at bet365)

The No. 4 pick out of USC has been stellar to kick off her inaugural campaign in Washington. She’s started four straight for the surprisingly competitive Mystics, and I expect another start and a healthy allotment of minutes on Sunday.

In Washington’s opener, Kiki Iriafen posted 14 points and four boards across 28 minutes. Over the last three games, she’s averaged a whopping 14.7 points and 13 boards while recording three straight double-doubles.

Aalyiah Edwards is expected to make her season debut, but she could be play limited minutes off the bench. Brittney Sykes is questionable, and Shakira Austin is out, meaning the Mystics could keep a tight rotation once again, after playing only eight players against the Aces and dolling out 31 bench minutes.

I’m betting on the rookie to post at least 10 points and 10 boards for a fourth consecutive game, and I love the even-money odds on this combo prop.

A’ja Wilson Over 11.5 rebounds (-130 at bet365)

A’ja Wilson averaged a career-best 11.9 rebounds per game last season and set the WNBA single-season record for rebounds in the process.

This season, she’s off to another hot start on the glass, recording 12.7 rebounds per game across her first three contests. She ranks second in rebounds per game behind only Reese.

Wilson has recorded at least 12 rebounds in two of three games in 2025, and she reached that mark in 21 of 44 appearances (regular season and playoffs) in 2024. Wilson averaged 11.7 boards on the road and 11.4 at home, grabbing at least 12 rebounds in 11 of 21 away from Michelob ULTRA Arena.

Wilson grabbed 11.3 rebounds per game across six matchups with the Storm last season, including 10.3 at home and 13.5 on the road. She pulled down 12 or more in one of two at Seattle, and she’s in a great spot to keep the momentum rolling on Sunday. The Storm have allowed the most rebounds per game in 2025.
