New york liberty favored to win 2025 wNBA Championship
This Liberty (5-0 SU, 3-2 ATS) group hasn't budged much with the core three of Breanna Stewart, a top five point scorer, Sabrina Ionescu, one of the best three point shooters in the game, and Jonquel Jones all returning to the Big Apple. The reputation is upholding early in the season with the Liberty leading the league averaging 91.6 PPG, 5.8 blocks, 9.5 steals and shooting 47.6% from the field.
The defending champs were active during the offseason, trading Courtney Vandersloot in exchange for Connecticut's Natasha Cloud, whose 6.9 assists per game was the third-best mark in the league last season. Similar to Vandersloot, the 33-year-old is a playmaker, but a tad younger while also still managing 11.9 points in 2024. With minimal changes and Cloud's addition strengthening the team, it’s clear why oddsmakers have them as favorites for the 2025 season.

How To Read WNBA Championship Odds
At an online sportsbook that would list WNBA championship odds, they would look similar to this:
- Las Vegas Aces -250
- Chicago Sky +330
- Connecticut Sun +500
The minus sign (-) indicates which team is the favorite. In this case, it’s the Las Vegas Aces at -250. Every other team that’s listed is considered an underdog.
If you believe the Aces will win the WNBA championship and you bet $100 and it happens, you would win $140 – your $100 is returned and you would gain $40 in profit.
