Sunday’s three-game WNBA slate features some of the most prolific glass-cleaners in the Association, and that’s where I’m turning my attention.

My WNBA picks key in on the Top-3 rebounders in the W in Kiki Iriafen, Angel Reese, and Jessica Shepard, with Iriafen and Shepard set up for success and Reese in for a frustrating afternoon.

Angel Reese Under 12.5 rebounds (-125)
Angel Reese’s rebound totals are heavily driven by her work on the offensive glass, with 51% of her rebounds coming on that end.
The Phoenix Mercury allow the fourth-fewest offensive rebounds and sport the fourth-best team defensive rebound percentage.
Mercury center Natasha Mack owns the sixth-highest defensive rebound percentage among players averaging 25+ minutes.

Phoenix can contain Reese and keep her from reaching a rebound total she’s failed to clear in back-to-back games. I’ll bet this one down to 11.5 in a difficult matchup.

Jessica Shepard Over 9.5 rebounds (+100)
Jessica Shepard leads the Dallas Wings with 10 rebounds per game across 30.6 minutes. No other player averages more than 3.7 boards, and no other frontcourt player averages more than 18 minutes.
New York boasts a lethal 1-2 punch of Breanna Stewart and Jonquel Jones down low, and Shepard should see heavy minutes as she jockeys for position. The point total for this game is set at a whopping 179.5, implying plenty of shots and rebound opportunities.

I like Shepard’s rebound line at +100, but I’m willing to take a chance on her double-double prop at a juicy +200.

Kiki Iriafen Over 10.5 rebounds (+100)
Kiki Iriafen leads all players with 12.8 rebounds, and she ranks second in offensive boards at four per game.
Washington’s frontcourt anchor gets a phenomenal matchup tonight against a Storm team allowing the second-most rebounds (36.3) and fourth-most offensive rebounds (9.7). Seattle will be without 6-foot-7 center Dominique Malonga (concussion), giving Iriafen an even better matchup in the paint.
The Storm shoot just 42% as a team, and Iriafen should have plenty of missed shots to corral. I’ll bet this line up to 11.5 for even more profitable odds.
