Elite WNBA DFS Players
Guards
FanDuel
Olivia Miles, Lynx 
($7,000) vs. Liberty
Miles has missed the last two games due to a calf injury, but she'll return to action against New York. While her biggest risk factor is whether she'll face any limitations during her first game back in action, it was encouraging that she was listed as available Friday evening rather than carrying any sort of injury designation. At her current salary, she would've provided at least 4x value in 19 of her 20 appearances this season, making her a relatively safe option as long as she can handle a full workload.
DraftKings
Jackie Young, Aces 
($10,800) vs. Mercury
The elite guards on Saturday's DraftKings slate are somewhat risky, but Young is coming off a performance in which she would have provided 4x value against the Fire on Thursday. She was held in check during the Aces' Opening Night matchup against Phoenix in which Las Vegas suffered a 33-point loss, but she bounced back with a 20-point, nine-assist, five-steal performance against the Mercury on June 17, and she'll attempt to maintain her momentum Saturday.
Forwards/Centers
FanDuel
A'ja Wilson, Aces ($9,400) vs. Mercury
Wilson has been one of the go-to options in this column throughout the season. While she has the highest salary of any player on Saturday's FanDuel slate, she's been the most reliable option in the league over the first half of the season, and she appears to be in the driver's seat for a fifth WNBA MVP as long as she can maintain this level of production. After missing two regular-season games and the Commissioner's Cup Championship, she returned to action with a 32-point, 10-rebound performance against Portland on Fire, and it seems unlikely that she'll be limited Saturday.
DraftKings
Breanna Stewart, Liberty 
($11,600) at Lynx
Stewart had a slightly down year in 2025 while dealing with injuries, but she's bounced back over the first half of the 2026 campaign. She's generated at least 20 points in three of her last four appearances, averaging 25.0 points and 6.5 rebounds in 32.5 minutes per game during that time. She generated 36 points, seven rebounds and two blocks against the Lynx on July 3, and even though Dorka Juhasz will be available for Saturday's matchup, I still like Stewart's upside at this salary.
Mid-Range WNBA DFS Picks
FanDuel
Sabrina Ionescu, Liberty ($6,100) at Lynx
After missing most of the first month of the regular season, Ionescu hasn't displayed the same level of dominance early in her 2026 campaign as she showcased in past years. Given this inconsistency, her salary on FanDuel isn't shocking, but I view it as low enough to be worth the risk that she may have a slightly down performance. Although Ionescu hasn't had quite as much upside early in the year, she has maintained a decent floor and has an intriguing salary.
DraftKings
Dorka Juhasz, Lynx ($5,100) vs. Liberty
Juhasz missed nearly two months to begin the regular season, but she's been back in action over Minnesota's last two matchups. She played 25 minutes during her season debut against the Sun on Monday but was held to three points, four rebounds, three assists and a block. However, she was more effective during Wednesday's rematch against Connecticut, racking up 12 points, six rebounds, an assist and a block in 19 minutes. While she's come off the bench in her first two appearances of the season, she's an intriguing option at her current salary.
WNBA DFS Value Picks
FanDuel
Frieda Buhner, Fire 
($4,300) at Dream
While some slates will feature clear-cut value picks, Saturday's options on both platforms profile more as dart throws rather than slam-dunk picks. Buhner has had a relatively consistent role off the bench in recent weeks and has generated decent production over her last four outings, averaging 8.5 points and 3.5 rebounds in 19.3 minutes per game during that time. She's proven to be capable of providing at least 4x value at this salary and is worth taking a risk on, especially for those looking to fill lineups with elite-tier players.
DraftKings
Kierstan Bell, Aces ($3,100) vs. Mercury
Bell is another dart-throw pick, but she has close to a minimal salary and has demonstrated serviceable production recently. Across her last five appearances, she's averaged 4.6 points and 1.6 rebounds in 10.8 minutes per game, which isn't elite production but is enough to make some waves at this DFS salary.
