WNBA title odds set wide-open race for 2026 season

By Matt Moscona

The WNBA’s rapid growth continues to reshape the league’s competitive landscape, and early betting markets for the 2026 season reflect just how wide open the title race has become. Following the expansion draft and a wave of roster movement, sportsbooks like Bovada have released championship odds with no clear favorite at the top.

Instead, the Indiana Fever and Minnesota Lynx sit as co-favorites at +350, narrowly ahead of the Las Vegas Aces (+360), who have dominated much of the league’s recent history. The New York Liberty (+500) remain firmly in the mix, while teams like the Atlanta Dream and Phoenix Mercury round out a deep field of contenders.

Further down the board, expansion franchises and rebuilding clubs highlight the league’s growing parity. With talent dispersing across rosters, the 2026 season could deliver one of the most unpredictable title chases in years.
