2026 WNBA Title Odds: Aces, Lynx Favored; Where Do Fever Land?

The Las Vegas Aces secured their third WNBA championship in four years by sweeping the Phoenix Mercury 4-0 in the best-of-seven series, highlighting their dominance in the league.

Looking ahead to the 2026 WNBA Championship, FanDuel Sportsbook released odds as of October 13, with the Minnesota Lynx and Las Vegas Aces tied as favorites at +350, meaning a $10 bet would return $45 total. The Indiana Fever follow at +390, while the New York Liberty and Phoenix Mercury are listed at +480 and +850, respectively, with other teams like the Atlanta Dream, Seattle Storm, and expansion squads having longer odds.

Notably, the Minnesota Lynx, despite recent setbacks including a 2025 semifinal loss and an injury to star player Napheesa Collier, are positioned as top contenders, having last won the title in 2017. The reigning champion Las Vegas Aces, led by MVP A'ja Wilson, showcased a remarkable turnaround in 2025, winning 16 consecutive games to cap off their title run. The Indiana Fever, who reached the semifinals without Caitlin Clark for much of the season, are seen as potential finalists if she returns. At the bottom, expansion teams Portland Fire and Toronto Tempo, set to debut in the league's 30th anniversary year, face uncertainties due to upcoming CBA negotiations.
