Odds on April 15, 2025
New York Liberty: The New York Liberty earned the #1 seed in the playoffs, and they used that home-court advantage to win the 2024 WNBA Finals in five games. While many people question the officiating in the deciding game of the finals, the Liberty are still champions for the first time in franchise history. New York immediately became the favorites to repeat as champions in 2025, as they'll be returning the killer duo of Breanna Stewart and Sabrina Ionescu.
Las Vegas Aces: The Aces failed to reach the WNBA Finals for a third consecutive year, but they still project to be a powerhouse next season behind A'ja Wilson. One area that Las Vegas must improve upon for the 2025 season is their defense, as they finished 5th in defensive rating in 2024, and that is one area that hurt them during the 2024 postseason. In what was a blockbuster trade, the Aces did make a good step in improving their defense by acquiring Jewell Loyd, as Vegas sent Kelsey Plum to the LA Sparks.
Minnesota Lynx: The Lynx finished the regular season with the second-best record in the league and the best record in the Western Conference at 30-10. With a NET rating of (8), the Lynx earned the #2 seed and fell just short of another title. Minnesota is still in a good spot moving forward with Napheesa Collins leading the charge, so it's not shocking to see them right behind the Liberty on the odds board.
Season | Team | Opening odds |
---|---|---|
2024 | New York Liberty | +236 |
2023 | Las Vegas Aces | +175 |
2022 | Las Vegas Aces | +350 |
2021 | Chicago Sky | +1800 |
2020 | Seattle Storm | +800 |
2019 | Washington Mystics | +450 |
The added attention to the WNBA has primarily stemmed from the influx of talent the league has seen over the past few seasons. Players like A'Ja Wilson and Caitlin Clark have made the league a must-watch event on a nightly basis. Fresh off the 2024 WNBA Finals, Wilson and Clark sit atop the odds board for the 2025 MVP, but there are certainly plenty of players who could end up taking home the award.

Odds on April 15, 2025
A'ja Wilson (Las Vegas Aces): Wilson took home her third MVP in 2024 with another stellar season, in which she led the league in scoring with 26.9 PPG. The Aces star averaged almost four more points per game than the second-leading scorer in the league, as he remains dominant in that aspect. Wilson also finished second in the league in rebounding, as her ability to be an all-around player makes her a tough person to knock off for this award.
Caitlin Clark (Indiana Fever): Even with how good Wilson is, Clark solidified herself as the face of the WNBA in her rookie season. If voters considered viewership numbers, the Fever guard likely would have won more than just Rookie of the Year. Clark finished 7th in the league this season in points per game with an average of 19.2, but she also broke the rookie assist record, averaging 8.4 per game. As her comfort level in the league grows, the question is not when Clark will win the MVP but how many times she will win it.
Napheesa Collins (Minnesota Lynx): Behind her 20.4 PPG, Collins led her team to the WNBA Finals in 2024. Like Wilson, the Lynx star does everything well on the court, pulling down 9.7 rebounds per game. Collins is one of the purest scoring threats in the league, shooting 49.2% from the field in 2024, and after falling short of a title, there is no denying she will enter 2025 highly motivated.
Another loaded rookie class, headlined by Paige Bueckers, has joined the league for the upcoming season, and while Bueckers has opened as the favorite to win the award, there are certainly a few players who could make some noise in their rookie season. Down below, we will dive into the odds for ROTY, keeping WNBA bettors up to date on all odds changes.

Paige Bueckers (Dallas Wings): After her storied college career, which ended with a National Championship, Bueckers was expected to be taken 1st overall, and the Dallas Wings made that a reality. In her senior year, Bueckers averaged 19.8 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 4.5 assists, as she is expected to be one of the focal points of the Wings' offense in her rookie season.
Dominique Malonga (Seattle Storm): Malonga became the first Frenchwoman to dunk in an official game in the history of women's basketball, and the Storm selected her second overall in the hopes she can control the paint for them. At 19 years old and 6'6, Malonga will be out to prove that she can make an immediate impact in the WNBA and be a driving force in Seattle's rebuild.
Sonia Citron (Washington Mystics): The Mystics selected Citron with the third pick in the WNBA Draft, which came after her impressive season at Notre Dame. Citron averaged 14.3 points and 5.8 rebounds per game in her senior season, and her 37.2% three-point percentage during the college season should give a boost to a Mystics team that is already one of the better perimeter shooting teams in the league.
