Liberty move to top of WNBA title odds after adding Satou Sabally with champion Aces close behind

New York jumped to the top of title odds after adding three-time All-Star Satou Sabally, while the Las Vegas Aces stayed close behind.

  • The New York Liberty are now the WNBA title favorites at +210 at BetMGM and +220 at Caesars after adding three-time All-Star Satou Sabally. She joins a roster led by MVP Breanna Stewart and All-Star Sabrina Ionescu.
  • Winning three of the past four championships, the Las Vegas Aces remain the league's dominant force, with Wilson favored to capture her third consecutive MVP award. All-Stars Chelsea Gray, Jackie Young, and Jewell Loyd return under coach Becky Hammon.
  • Since Caitlin Clark joined the league in 2024, betting interest surged 108%. The Indiana Fever command 26.6% of tickets and 37.3% of the money to win it all, with Clark returning to an Indiana squad including All-Stars Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell.
  • Following the acquisition of Angel Reese, the Atlanta Dream are among the favorites at +550. Bettors heavily back Dallas Wings guard Paige Bueckers, who ranks as the second choice at +250 behind the leaders at BetMGM and Caesars.
  • Injuries threaten the Liberty's championship window, with Ionescu sidelined for at least two weeks due to foot and ankle injuries. Longtime handicapper Dana Lane expects "a two-team race" for the title, though adapting to coach Chris DeMarco's offense remains a challenge for New York.
