Heat is building ahead of Sunday's test against the Storm
Heat +2.5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
If you haven't been paying attention to Fever before, now might be the time to start.
Sure, Indiana started 3-10 and some fans were giving up on the WNBA's most popular team, but Clark's team flipped the switch in mid-June and hasn't looked back since, winning nine of their last 14 games since Sunday's 98-89 win over the Phoenix Mercury, who were down 28 points before a false second-half lapse.
Clark has been a key part of the team, averaging 19.6 points and 10.7 assists over the past month, setting new rookie records, and she was red hot again on Friday, finishing with 29 points, 10 assists and four 3-pointers.
Can Seattle complete a winning season?
I have a lot of respect for Seattle because they were my favorite team to win before the season and they have the roster to definitely make a deep run in September.
There's a reason the Storm won each of the first three times these teams met, but the Fever are playing at a different level than any of their previous games, and Seattle is fresh off a lethargic 83-81 loss to the Atlanta Dream. The Dream made 23 free throws and had 10 more rebounds than the Storm.
If Indiana were the home favorite, I might think twice about taking lightly on one of the WNBA's powerhouse teams, but with Clark and company playing off a month of rest, it's hard to justify putting points on the line in this matchup.

How to bet on Caitlin Clark against the Storm
Caitlin Clark 31.5+ points + Best ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Clark is on a roll and it seems the best sportsbooks can't keep up.
After a month off during the Olympic break, the No. 1 draft pick looked fresh and focused against the Mercury, finishing with 29 points and 10 assists after her longest break since before her senior season at Iowa.
Her 29 points tied her most points in a single game since early June and marked her eighth time in her past 10 games with double-digit assists, including a WNBA-record 19 in her final game before the Olympics.
Clarke has cleared this combined prop total in five of his last six appearances, but the under is priced at -122 odds and the over is even cheaper than the standard -110 vig, which looks like an opportunity for player prop bettors to bet on the Fever’s in-form rookie.

Caitlin Clark – Under 6.5 rebounds ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Clark has shown tremendous improvement as a scorer and facilitator in recent weeks, but that has resulted in an apparent lack of focus on rebounding.
After grabbing 12 rebounds on July 6, she has finished with six or fewer rebounds in five straight games and had five rebounds on Friday. She has now fallen short of that prop total in 18 of her 27 starts (66.7%), including nine of her last 11, but FanDuel is offering her plus money value at the under.
Clarke had a total of nine rebounds in his last two games against Seattle, but neither reached this total. I have no idea why this prop is worth so much. If it does happen, your $10 bet will net you $11 in profit.
