🏀 WNBA Championship Odds 2026: Liberty Favorites To Take Title; Clark Leads MVP Odds
Despite the Las Vegas Aces winning their third WNBA championship since 2022 last year, they don't enter the 2026 season as the WNBA championship odds favorite.
Atop the board are the New York Liberty (+230), led by new head coach Chris DeMarco. Trailing the Liberty, with +450 odds to win the WNBA championship, are the Aces and Indiana Fever, who have the top two WNBA MVP odds favorites.
While Aces center A'ja Wilson took home her WNBA record fourth MVP last year, her +265 odds to repeat put her just behind Fever star Caitlin Clark (+260). Napheesa Collier of the Minnesota Lynx is a distant third at +1000.
