Indiana Fever vs. Washington Mystics
May 28, 2025 7:30 pm EDT
The WNBA presents FanDuel basketball fans with a regular season matchup featuring the Washington Mystics and the Indiana Fever. Let’s take a look at this game from a DFS perspective.
Before we dive into the Washington Mystics vs. Indiana Fever game let’s review the rules for the FanDuel single game showdown contest.
FanDuel Single Game Contest Rules
Here are the FanDuel single game contest rules. You have $60,000 to utilize on five players from either team. However, one of those players will be designated as your team MVP. The MVP accumulates 1.5x times the standard FanDuel fantasy points value. Additionally, the MVP is 1.5 times the standard cost of the flex position.
The remaining five players in your lineup will be flex plays. The five flex positions will receive the standard FanDuel points value. Having stated that, it is highly important for you to identify the correct player for your MVP position if you hope to win a large field GPP (guaranteed prize pool) FanDuel single game contest.
If you have additional questions regarding the rules for the single game contest, I highly recommend that you check out the FanDuel website for more details.
*I recommend that all readers review the starting lineups for both teams prior to setting your DFS lineup for this one game slate.
Here are my FanDuel picks for tonight’s Indiana Fever vs. Washington Mystics matchup.
FanDuel WNBA DFS Picks
MVP-Aliyah Boston, Forward, Indiana Fever $13,400
Veteran forward Aliyah Boston has been a solid performer for the Indiana Fever this season. With that said, how has Boston performed from a statistical standpoint in 2025? Let’s examine Boston’s game data from the 2025 WNBA regular season to answer that question.
In the four games that forward Aliyah Boston played for the Indiana Fever in the 2025 WNBA regular season, Boston averaged 18.5 points, 10.8 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 2.1 blocks a game.
Looking closer at the data just presented, in the four games that Aliyah Boston has played for the Fever in 2025, Boston has compiled a 60.8% field goal percentage, a 50% three-point percentage and a 78.6% free throw percentage.
More recently, In the Indiana Fever’s dominant 93-58 win over the Chicago Sky earlier this month, Indiana forward Aliyah Boston played exceptionally well. More specifically, Boston tallied a rather impressive 19 points, 13 and five blocks in the Fever’s defeat of the Chicago Sky.
It is noteworthy that Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark will miss this evening’s WNBA game due to injury. I think the absence of Clark in the Fever’s lineup will open up additional offensive opportunities for Boston in tonight’s matchup with the Washington Mystics.
In my view, Aliyah Boston is the most likely player to post the most FanDuel points in this WNBA regular season game. For that specific reason, I am rolling with Indiana Fever forward Aliyah Boston at the MVP position for this one game FanDuel WNBA single game contest.
Flex Plays
Kelsey Mitchell, Guard, Indiana Fever $8,400
In addition to forward Aliyah Boston, guard Kelsey Mitchell has been a key contributor for the Indiana Fever this season.
In the four games that guard Kelsey Mitchell has played for the Indiana Fever this season, Mithcell has averaged a robust 17.8 points, 1.1 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.3 blocks a game.
Looking closer at the data just presented, in the four games that Kelsey Mitchell has played for the Fever in 2025, Mitchell is averaging 25.58 FanDuel points a contest.
Additional flex plays I like to play well in this evening’s WNBA regular season game (FanDuel price noted): Brittney Sykes, Guard (Washington Mystics) $12,200: Sonia Citron, Guard (Washington Mystics) $8,000.
