WNBA Upsets & Streaks Heat Up Ahead of All-Star Break
20 Jul
Summary
- Dallas Wings have won six games in a row, being underestimated.
- A'ja Wilson averages 9.8 rebounds per game, facing a weak rebounding team.
- The Liberty are struggling against Western Conference teams and on the road.

With only two game days remaining before the WNBA All-Star break, the league is buzzing with intense competition. On Monday, July 22, 2026, four games are scheduled, including a rescheduled contest between the New York Liberty and Dallas Wings.
Several title contenders, including the top four teams in the league—Minnesota, Las Vegas, Golden State, and Dallas—are in action. The Dallas Wings, having won six consecutive games, are surprisingly listed as underdogs at home against the Liberty. This is particularly notable as Dallas ranks higher than New York in key offensive and defensive metrics, and the Liberty are facing injuries to key players.
In another compelling matchup, Las Vegas Aces' A'ja Wilson is highlighted for her rebounding prowess. Wilson, a leading MVP candidate, averages 9.8 rebounds per game and faces the Toronto Tempo, a team that ranks last in the WNBA for rebound percentage. Wilson has a strong record of securing double-digit rebounds and is expected to continue this trend against Toronto.
The Liberty have struggled this season, particularly against Western Conference teams, holding a mere 5-9 record against them. Additionally, New York has been poor against the spread on the road, with a 3-9 record. The Dallas Wings, conversely, boast an impressive 8-3 home record, making them a strong bet as 3.5-point underdogs.
