After a day off, the WNBA is back at it on Tuesday with three games on deck. As the playoff picture is shaping up more and more, there's still teams fighting for a spot to extend their season. One of those would be the Atlanta Dream as they welcome the Minnesota Lynx on to their home floor for an NBA TV matchup at 7:30 p.m. ET.
Though the Dallas Wings are officially eliminated from making it to the postseason, they will play host to the league's best team, the New York Liberty, at 8 p.m. ET on CBS Sports Network. And in their second meeting in the past week, the Los Angeles Sparks hope to get over the hump that is the Connecticut Sun as they meet again on League Pass at 10 p.m. ET.
Our experts get into a couple of the matchups for Tuesday night as we get into their WNBA best bets for Tuesday, September 10.

Joe Dellera's Best Bet For Lynx vs. Dream
By Joe Dellera
This line is too high for Charles despite her recent success. She has exceeded this line in 7 of her last 10 games; however, she is 0/7 on this line against the Lynx since 2022 recording 10 rebounds just once.
The Dream and the Lynx both play slow as well, with the third-slowest and second-slowest Pace marks in the W.
Charles could absolutely eat in this matchup because the Lynx do not have a traditional center; however, given the matchup history, I think it is much more likely that she gets played off a bit as she has in previous matchups. Even when she saw 28 and 32 mins she recorded 4 and 10 rebounds and in the earliest matchup she played just 20 minutes with 4 rebounds.
Pick: Tina Charles Under 10.5 Rebounds

Bryan Fonseca's Best Bet For Sun vs. Sparks
Run it back!
The Sparks haven't cracked this in three tries against the Sun this season.
These two just played — in L.A. — and despite 45 first half points and finishing the game shooting 50 percent from three and 80 percent on 20 free throw attempts, the Sparks still went under, not even coming close, finishing with 67 points.
Rickea Jackson even had 23, two away from her career-high.
I think this game is a slog, and the Sun might not even cover, but the trend is the trend, and I like the Sun to, again, force the Sparks under. They're an elite defense, after all.
Pick: Sparks Under 74.5 Points
