Connecticut Sun vs. Seattle Storm
July 11, 2025 10:00 pm EDT

The WNBA presents Draftkings basketball fans with a regular season matchup featuring the Connecticut Sun and the Seattle Storm. Let’s take a look at this game from a DFS perspective.

Before we dive into the Connecticut Sun vs. Seattle Storm game let’s review the rules for the Draftkings single game showdown contest.

Draftkings Single Game Showdown Contest Rules

You have $50,000 to utilize on five players from either team. However, one of those players will be designated as your team captain. The captain accumulates 1.5 times the standard fantasy points. Additionally, the captain is 1.5 times the standard cost of the flex position.

The remaining four players in your lineup will receive the standard fantasy points. Having stated that, it is highly important for you to identify the correct player for your captain position if you hope to win a large field DFS GPP (guaranteed prize pool) showdown contest.

If you have additional questions regarding the rules for the single game showdown contest, I recommend that you check out the Draftkings 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 Draftkings picks for tomorrow night’s Sun vs. Storm matchup.

Draftkings WNBA Showdown Picks

Captain-Skylar Diggins, Guard, Seattle Storm $9,800

Talented guard Skylar Diggins has been the driving force behind the Seattle Storm’s success on the basketball court in 2025. Having stated that, how has Diggins performed from a statistical perspective? Let’s take a look at Diggins game statistics from the 2025 WNBA regular season to answer that question.

In the 20 games that Diggins has played for the Storm in the 2025 WNBA regular season, Diggins is averaging a robust 18.5 points, 2.2 rebounds, 6.1 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.7 blocks a game.

Looking at the data just presented more closely, in the 20 games that Skylar Diggins has played for the Storm in 2025, Diggins has compiled a 44.7% field goal percentage, a 39.2% three-point percentage and an 80% free throw percentage.

These two teams met earlier this season. How did Diggins play in the game? Who prevailed? In the Seattle Storm’s 97-81 win over the Connecticut Sun last month, Storm guard Skylar Diggins certainly played at a high level. More specifically, Diggins amassed 24 points, one rebound, five assists and one steal in the Storm’s defeat of the Connecticut Sun.

In my view, Seattle Storm guard Skylar Diggins is the most likely player to post the most Draftkings points in this WNBA regular season game. For that specific reason, I am backing Skylar Diggins at the captain position for this one game Draftkings WNBA single game contest.

Flex Plays

Gabby Williams, Forward, Seattle Storm $9,200

In addition to Skylar Diggins, forward Gabby Williams has been a key contributor for the Seattle Storm this season.

In the 20 games that Gabby Williams has played for the Seattle Storm this season, Williams has averaged 13.8 points, 4.8 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 2.6 steals and 0.6 blocks a game.

Looking closer at the data just presented, in the 20 games that Gabby Williams has played for the Storm in 2025, Williams is averaging 32.7 Draftkings points a contest.

What did we learn from the data just presented? Clearly, Gabby Williams can post a high number of DFS points on any given night. With that said, I fully expect that trend to continue in tomorrow’s matchup with the Connecticut Sun.

Additional flex plays I like to play well in this WNBA regular season game (Draftkings price noted): Tina Charles, Center (Connecticut Sun) $7,800: Saniya Rivers, Guard (Connecticut Sun) $6,800.
