2025 WNBA Championship Odds

The 2025 WNBA season has been shaken up by the recent injury to Indiana Fever's top scorer, Caitlin Clark. Clark, who was previously the favorite to win the MVP award, will miss at least two weeks due to a quad strain. This has shifted the MVP odds, with Minnesota Lynx forward Napheesa Collier now leading the race at -135.

MVP Race Update

Napheesa Collier, the league's leading scorer with 29.5 points per game, has taken over as the favorite for the MVP title. Caitlin Clark, despite her injury, remains a strong contender at +210. Other notable players in the MVP race include A'ja Wilson of the Las Vegas Aces at +600 and Breanna Stewart of the New York Liberty at 75-1.

Rookie of the Year Predictions

In the Rookie of the Year race, Dallas Wings' No.1 overall pick Paige Bueckers is the odds-on favorite at -450. Other promising rookies include Kiki Iriafen of the Washington Mystics at +800 and Sonia Citron, also of the Mystics, at +800.

Team Championship Odds

The New York Liberty remain the favorites to win the 2025 WNBA Championship at +185. The Indiana Fever and Minnesota Lynx are tied at +330, while the defending champions, the Las Vegas Aces, are at +470. The Fever's season win total line has dropped to 29.5 after opening at 30.5, but they remain strong contenders at -6000 to make the playoffs.
