📈 Title Favorites: Can the Liberty Go Back-to-Back?
The New York Liberty enter the season as the favorites at +230. After a dominant 32-win regular season and a well-rounded Finals run, the core of Breanna Stewart, Jonquel Jones, and Sabrina Ionescu returns hungry for more. The Liberty’s depth, chemistry, and playoff poise make them the safest pick to repeat.
But don’t count out the Las Vegas Aces. The two-time champs (+350) still feature the league’s most dominant player in A’ja Wilson, who’s coming off a historic MVP season where she averaged 26.9 PPG and 11.9 RPG. With Chelsea Gray and Kelsey Plum in the mix, Vegas remains an elite powerhouse.
The Indiana Fever (+350) are this year’s biggest riser. After a playoff berth last season, they’re expected to take a leap with Caitlin Clark entering her second year. Clark brings star power and serious triple-double potential. Pair her with Aliyah Boston, and this is a legit title threat.

🚨 Contender Watch: Minnesota Lynx Could Surprise
Another team in the spotlight is the Minnesota Lynx (+400), led by Napheesa Collier, who nearly won MVP last season. With Collier opening the year as a top-3 MVP favorite and strong team chemistry, Minnesota is a high-upside pick for bettors seeking value.
The Phoenix Mercury (+1000) also remains a wildcard. With Kahleah Copper and Satou Sabally, Phoenix could put together a strong campaign if their defense tightens up. Meanwhile, the Seattle Storm (+3000) and Los Angeles Sparks (+4000) will need breakout years to contend.
🧮 Win Totals & Playoff Odds
| Team | Win Total (O/U) | Make Playoffs (Yes/No) |
| New York Liberty | 31.5 (-140 / +110) | — / — |
| Las Vegas Aces | 29.5 (-145 / +110) | -10000 / +1800 |
| Indiana Fever | 30.5 (-115 / -115) | -5000 / +1300 |
| Minnesota Lynx | 30.5 (-120 / -110) | -4000 / +1000 |
| Phoenix Mercury | 23.5 (-135 / +105) | -700 / +400 |
| Seattle Storm | 24.5 (-105 / -125) | -600 / +360 |
| Los Angeles Sparks | 20.5 (+100 / -130) | -160 / +125 |
| Atlanta Dream | 21.5 (-115 / -115) | -220 / +170 |
| Chicago Sky | 18.5 (-135 / +105) | -115 / -115 |
| Dallas Wings | 19.5 (+110 / -140) | -115 / -115 |
| Washington Mystics | 14.5 (-105 / -125) | +340 / -550 |
| Connecticut Sun | 11.5 (+105 / -135) | +800 / -2500 |
| Golden State Valkyries | 8.5 (-125 / -105) | +1300 / -5000 |
The top four teams — Liberty, Fever, Aces, and Lynx — all have win totals above 30, which suggests a clear divide between the top tier and the rest of the league. Meanwhile, expansion team Golden State Valkyries debut with just 8.5 wins projected.
🏅 WNBA MVP Odds: Clark, Wilson, or Collier?
| Player | MVP Odds |
| Caitlin Clark (Fever) | +200 |
| A’ja Wilson (Aces) | +225 |
| Napheesa Collier (Lynx) | +300 |
| Breanna Stewart (Liberty) | 12-1 |
| Kelsey Plum (Aces) | 30-1 |
| Sabrina Ionescu (Liberty) | 30-1 |
| Angel Reese (Sky) | 75-1 |
| Paige Bueckers (Wings) | 80-1 |
Clark is the fan favorite and betting public’s choice at +200, but the general managers reportedly picked Collier as their preseason MVP. A’ja Wilson is the reigning queen and looks to win her fourth MVP if she can match her 2024 production.
👶 Rookie of the Year Odds: Bueckers Leads the Way
| Player | RoY Odds |
| Paige Bueckers (Wings) | -375 |
| Dominique Malonga (Storm) | +550 |
| Sonia Citron (Mystics) | 18-1 |
| Hailey Van Lith (Sky) | 50-1 |
The Dallas Wings’ No. 1 pick Paige Bueckers is the heavy favorite to win Rookie of the Year at -375, entering the league with major expectations. She joins forces with Arike Ogunbowale, forming a dynamic backcourt that debuts Friday night against Seattle.
💡 Final Take: Who’s the Best Bet?
- Safe Bet: New York Liberty (+230) — elite talent, returning core, proven winner.
- Value Bet: Minnesota Lynx (+400) — Collier-led squad could explode.
- Longshot to Watch: Phoenix Mercury (+1000) — if Sabally stays healthy, they could contend.
For bettors and fans alike, the 2025 WNBA season is shaping up to be one of the most competitive in recent memory. With rising stars like Clark and Bueckers entering the spotlight and legends like Wilson and Stewart defending their legacy, now is the time to lock in your WNBA championship odds and start tracking the action.
