Betting the Most Valuable Player (MVP) award race is all about timing – identifying players peaking at the right moment before the odds shift and the value disappears.
So, how is the WNBA MVP race shaping up? Here’s what you need to know.
Overview
Last season, A’ja Wilson reinforced her place among the league’s elite by winning the 2024 WNBA MVP award with the Las Vegas Aces, though her team ultimately fell short in the WNBA semi-finals against the New York Liberty.
Now in 2025, a new MVP race is taking shape – and oddsmakers have zeroed in on a few elite contenders poised to dominate the regular season.
MVP Award
The WNBA MVP award is presented annually to the league’s most outstanding player during the regular season. It is voted on by a panel of national sportswriters and broadcasters. The award recognizes individual excellence, leadership, and overall impact – regardless of team playoff performance.

Player Spotlights
Napheesa Collier (-180)
Napheesa Collier enters the heart of the 2025 season as the clear MVP front-runner – and for good reason. As the engine behind Minnesota’s rise to contention, Collier is putting up dominant numbers while playing both ends of the floor at an elite level. She’s logging heavy minutes, posting near triple-doubles on a regular basis, and anchoring a defense that ranks among the league’s best.
At -180, the market has already adjusted to her value, but there could still be room for profit if she maintains her form and Minnesota stays near the top of the standings. The key for bettors is durability and narrative – Collier checks both boxes so far.
Caitlin Clark (+250)
After taking the league by storm as a rookie, Caitlin Clark is firmly in the MVP conversation in her second year with the Indiana Fever. Her deep shooting range, playmaking flair, and overall box-office appeal have made her the face of the league in just a few months – and MVP voters are watching.
At +250, Clark’s odds reflect not only her stat line, but the attention she brings to the game. If she continues putting up 20+ points and 7+ assists per game while leading Indiana into the playoff mix, she’s got a serious shot. Bettors should weigh whether the voters will back a rookie over veterans if the numbers are close.
A’ja Wilson (+750)
A’ja Wilson isn’t the betting favorite this year, but she’s still firmly in the hunt. A three-time MVP (2024, 2022, 2020), Wilson continues to put up her usual efficient scoring and rebounding numbers for Las Vegas, though the Aces’ early-season struggles have tempered oddsmakers’ enthusiasm.
At +750, she offers potential value as a bounce-back candidate – especially if Las Vegas climbs the standings and Wilson finishes strong. If voters see her as the best player on a resurging team, a late-season push could quickly tighten the race.
Breanna Stewart & Sabrina Ionescu (+7500)
Both Breanna Stewart and Sabrina Ionescu remain on the fringes of the MVP race largely due to sharing the spotlight on a loaded New York Liberty squad. Stewart, the 2023 MVP, continues to put up strong two-way numbers, while Ionescu is posting elite shooting splits and playmaking stats.
But at +7500 each, their chances depend on one of them breaking away with a clear statistical edge – or the Liberty dominating the league in such a way that one player becomes the face of the team. As it stands, their odds reflect a diluted MVP case due to cannibalized votes. Still, for bettors seeking value in a long shot tied to a top-tier team, either player could become relevant if the dynamics shift.
