The Indiana Fever and Seattle Storm face off Tuesday, June 24 with both teams trending in opposite directions. The Fever have lost their last two games, most recently dropping 89-81 result to the Las Vegas Aces. The Storm have won three in a row, defeating the defending champions New York Liberty 89-79 in their last game. The Fever got Caitlin Clark back from a quad injury 10 days ago in a win over the Liberty in the Commissioner's Cup, but the star guard has struggled over the last two games. She has 14 turnovers over the last two games and is just 10-for-34 from the floor. Is Clark worth backing to break out of her slump Tuesday?

Before locking in any WNBA picks or WNBA props, be sure to check out the Fever-Storm best bets from experts Calvin Wetzel and Aaron Barzilai. 

Barzilai is a Ph.D. from Stanford who served as Director of Basketball Analytics for the Philadelphia 76ers. Five years ago, he founded HerHoopStats.com -- a groundbreaking website that unlocks insights about the women's game. Wetzel, the site's lead betting writer, incorporates his mathematical background and strong knowledge of women's hoops to turn the site's prediction model into picks. Wetzel and Barzilai went 202-111-2 (+57.9 units) during the 2024 WNBA season and posted a 147-88-1 (+47.1 units) during the 2024-25 NCAA season. In the 2023 WNBA season, they finished 238-185-1 (+29.5 units).

Here are Barzilai and Wetzel's top Fever-Storm picks for Tuesday, June 24:

  • Storm -1 (-110)
  • Caitlin Clark Under 9.5 assists (-114)

Storm -1

The Storm have been a little inconsistent at times, and the Fever may be hungry coming off of a two-game losing streak. However, Indiana is also on the last leg of a week-long West Coast road trip, and Seattle has been the better team on paper even when you account for the time Clark missed.

Getting essentially a pick'em in Seattle means sportsbooks seem to disagree with that and would favor Indiana on a neutral court. That gives us good value on Seattle, so take advantage before the line gets higher.

Caitlin Clark under 9.5 assists (-114)

While Clark has improved her assist average from 8.4 in her rookie campaign to 8.9 this season, it's still well below the 9.5 mark that books tend to post for her. When the under is juiced or when facing an inferior defense, that 9.5 may make sense, but at standard juice on the road against a quality Storm defense, this line is too high.

Clark was under this in all four matchups with Seattle last season, so bet on that streak to continue in this one.
