A’ja Wilson and the Las Vegas Aces will begin the WNBA season Tuesday night as a heavy favorite to win a third straight title.
The Aces, who were a unanimous choice at No. 1 in the preseason AP WNBA power poll, are plus-100 favorites to win the title again, according to BetMGM. New York, at plus-230, is the only team close to the champs.
Wilson, the WNBA Finals MVP, was a unanimous choice as the AP preseason player of the year. She’s been a star on and off the court since being drafted first by Las Vegas in 2018. She wasn’t the only unanimous choice by the national media panel, who also chose Caitlin Clark as the preseason rookie of the year.
Clark will begin her WNBA career at Connecticut on Tuesday night. She leads a star-studded rookie class that also includes Angel Reese that has already lifted the league to new heights.
Here are a few things to look for in the season ahead:
Previous：Risks of handcuffing someone facedown long known; people die when police training fails to keep up
Next：New industry readies for launch as researchers hone offshore wind turbines that float
