WNBA championship odds for 2024 are getting a fresh look, with the league just completing its All-Star Game and on hiatus for the Olympics.
The two-time defending champion Las Vegas Aces remain favored in odds to win the WNBA championship. The New York Liberty are a close No. 2. But Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever, popular as they may be in terms of attendance, have fallen well back in WNBA Finals odds.
Here's everything you need to know about 2024 WNBA championship odds, along with WNBA MVP and Rookie of the Year odds: action, movement and betting trends. Check back regularly for updates, and use our BetMGM bonus code to get more when you wager.

Breaking the Fever

When BetMGM first posted WNBA championship odds months ago, the Indiana Fever were the +2500 seventh choice on the board. On the assumption that Indiana would take Clark with the No. 1 overall pick, the Fever got as short as +1700 in March.
By early July, though, Indiana was all the way out to +12600 (126/1). The Fever are now +8000, still the seventh choice, but not seen as a title threat with their 11-15 record.
Bettors haven't been enthused since shortly after the season began in mid-May.
"That ship has mostly sailed. Anyone watching WNBA games will clearly see the Fever are outmatched. They haven't taken a ton of money in-season," BetMGM trader Christian Cipollini said.
The Fever remain No. 1 in ticket count and No. 3 in money at BetMGM, but that's all a testament to early betting.
"There was tons of Fever action preseason. Indiana would be a big loser for us, but we're not worried," Cipollini said.

Two of a Kind

The season won't resume until Aug. 15, but it's pretty clear that it's a two-way race in WNBA championship odds. Las Vegas and New York, who met in last year's Finals, are a tight 1-2 at BetMGM.
The Aces opened as +115 favorites and the Liberty as the +250 second choice. With the second half ahead, it's much closer, with Las Vegas +150 chalk and New York right behind at +160.
New York is No. 2 in tickets and No. 1 in money, while Las Vegas is No. 3 in tickets/No. 2 in money. But a title from either is fine with BetMGM.
"The Aces and Liberty are the two most-bet-on, outside of the Fever. Fever money has helped displace Aces and Liberty money," Cipollini said. "It's really a two-horse race between the Liberty and Aces. Both are winners for us right now, and they are the two most compelling teams.
"We probably want an Aces-Liberty final. Of realistic outcomes, the two best teams would likely draw the most action, outside of a Caitlyn Clark/Fever miracle."

Rookie of the Year/MVP Odds

No surprise, Caitlin Clark's impact has been huge on WNBA Rookie of the Year odds, and she's modestly impacted the WNBA MVP odds market. The Fever standout is rolling toward the Rookie award.
Aces star A'ja Wilson is absolutely running away with the MVP race, aiming to win the honor for the third time in five seasons.
"The odds say both races are over. Wilson has a 98% chance and Caitlyn a 95% chance," Cipollini said.
Wilson is a massive -5000 in WNBA MVP odds, after opening the season +175. In Rookie of the Year odds, Clark opened a healthy -650 and is now -2000. Angel Reese has drawn interest in the Rookie market and actually got as short as +300. But she's now +800.
"Clark's odds were short enough to limit liability. With Reese getting some action, it was enough to offset us," Cipollini said. "Angel would be a loser for us, but we would be happy with a Caitlyn Clark win."
As for MVP, interest in Clark helped offset any other liability at BetMGM. Clark opened as the +1200 fourth choice, behind Wilson, Breanna Stewart (+600) and Alyssa Thomas (+1100). But by mid-July – despite taking a lot of tickets and money – Clark was out to +12500 (125/1).
Clark is now +9000, and as noted above, Wilson is a dominant favorite.
