After a long layoff, the WNBA is back in action. The games resume on Thursday with the majority of the league resuming play on Friday. Once again, the conversation on both Rookie of the Year and WNBA MVP can continue.
Back on July 18, Las Vegas Aces star A’ja Wilson led the odds to win the award, with New York Liberty star Sabrina Ionescu and Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark at No. 2 and 3, respectively.
On Thursday, BetMGM released a new WNBA MVP odds list, and Wilson was once again at the top. However, Clark slipped down to No. 4 on the list.
A’ja Wilson still holds a commanding lead at -5000, with Alyssa Thomas and Ionescu tied for second (+8000), followed by Clark (+9000).
Earlier in July, Clark was outside of the Top 8 altogether in the WNBA MVP odds, but her recent play propelled her up.

Prior to the break, Clark scored 24 against the Dallas Wins in a loss and had 29 against the Washington Mystics in another loss.
However, the rookie scored 20 or more points in three of the final six games before the break. On top of that, she had double-doubles in five of those six, including a triple-double against the Liberty on July 6.
As of now, it is Wilson’s award to lose, but Ionescu, Thomas and Clark are going to make it interesting down the stretch.
The Fever begin the second half with a home game against the Phoenix Mercury on Friday, while Wilson and Ionescu face each other on Saturday in Las Vegas.
