The Las Vegas Aces defeated the Phoenix Mercury in four games to win the 2025 WNBA Finals, securing their third championship in four years.

With that said, let’s take a look at the WNBA odds of winning the championship at the BetMGM sportsbook heading into 2026.

Prediction: Who Will Win the WNBA Championship in 2026?

The Aces are the current favourite to win the WNBA championship in 2026 with basketball betting odds of +300, followed by:

  • Indiana Fever (+375)
  • Minnesota Lynx (+400)
  • New York Liberty (+450)
  • Phoenix Mercury (+700)
  • Atlanta Dream (+1400)
  • Seattle Storm (+1600)

I predict the Aces will win the 2026 WNBA championship because A’ja Wilson can simply not be stopped, no matter how many defenders you throw at her.

Jackie Young should continue to benefit as Las Vegas’ second scoring option while Chelsea Gray holds it down on both ends of the floor.

2026 WNBA Championship Favourites & Best Bets

Las Vegas Aces WNBA Championship Odds +300

Wilson alone makes the Aces favourites, but Las Vegas’ crisp passing and 3-point shooting also give them a leg up on their opponents.

Indiana Fever WNBA Championship Odds +375

Indiana pushed the Aces to five games in the semifinals without Caitlin Clark.

Clark could help the Fever get over the hump next season alongside Kelsey Mitchell and Aliyah Boston.

Minnesota Lynx WNBA Championship Odds +400

The Lynx are a well-oiled machine on both ends of the floor.

Napheesa Collier’s brilliance and versatility should keep Minnesota in contention.

New York Liberty WNBA Championship Odds +450

Breanna Stewart and Sabrina Ionescu are expected to stay with the Liberty.

However, Jonquel Jones could depart via free agency.

New York is looking for its next head coach after parting ways with Sandy Brondello.

Phoenix Mercury WNBA Championship Odds +700

The Mercury will look to re-sign Alyssa Thomas, Satou Sabally, and Kahleah Copper after getting to the Finals.

Atlanta Dream WNBA Championship Odds +1400

The Dream could look to add more scoring next to Allisha Gray and Rhyne Howard after their underwhelming postseason run.

Seattle Storm WNBA Championship Odds +1600

Seattle’s defence made life difficult for Wilson during its postseason run, with Dominique Malonga and Ezi Magbegor handling things inside.

Golden State Valkyries WNBA Championship Odds +3500

The Golden State Valkyries will look to bring back first-time All-Star Kayla Thornton and Veronica Burton in free agency.

Los Angeles Sparks WNBA Championship Odds +4500

The Los Angeles Sparks had the league’s third-best offensive rating (101.9) in Kelsey Plum’s first year with the team.

Washington Mystics WNBA Championship Odds +5000

Rising stars Sonia Citron and Kiki Iriafen will look to catapult the Washington Mystics into playoff contention next season.

Dallas Wings WNBA Championship Odds +5000

The Dallas Wings hope Paige Bueckers could elevate the team into playoff contention a year after her outstanding rookie season.

Connecticut Sun WNBA Championship Odds +15000

The rebuilding Connecticut Sun may give Aneesah Morrow, Jacy Sheldon, and Aaliyah Edwards more run next season.

Chicago Sky WNBA Championship Odds +15000

Angel Reese trade rumours may be swirling through the offseason, as the direction of the Chicago Sky appears murky, at best.

Portland Fire WNBA Championship Odds +20000

The Portland Fire will begin play in 2026—roster to be determined.

Toronto Tempo WNBA Championship Odds +20000

The Toronto Tempo will begin play in 2026—roster to be determined.
