  • The Liberty have claimed the top spot in the latest power rankings.

The 2024 WNBA season has delivered plenty of drama, particularly among the top teams.

The New York Liberty once again have the No. 1 spot in these power rankings, stealing the title from the Connecticut Sun. The Minnesota Lynx and the Las Vegas Aces have also spent time atop this list.

But now the Liberty stand alone entering the home stretch of the regular season.

These rankings and the latest WNBA championship odds at the online sportsbook help assess where the league currently stands:

Best WNBA Teams, 2024

1. New York Liberty

Last yearโ€™s runner-up has been the best team in the league for much of the year. The Liberty are poised to win their first WNBA championship in franchise history.

2. Minnesota Lynx

According to oddsmakers, Minnesotaโ€™s two wins over Las Vegas were outright upsets. But the Lynx have established themselves as a top contender this year.

3. Connecticut Sun

Connecticut leads the league in defensive rating this year, which provides a strong floor in these power rankings.

4. Las Vegas Aces

The two-time champions have needed every minute of a dominant MVP campaign from Aโ€™ja Wilson. The Aces are not what they used to be.

5. Seattle Storm

The upside of the new-look Storm is still intriguing, especially if they put it all together down the stretch.

6. Indiana Fever

Caitlin Clark has Indiana’s offense humming entering the postseason.

7. Phoenix Mercury

The Mercury continue to be an inconsistent team, but their highs are better than most.

8. Chicago Sky

The loss of Angel Reese hurts a young Chicago team desperately trying to hold onto a playoff spot.

9. Atlanta Dream

Thanks to better health, Atlanta is pushing for playoff contention with its recent play.

10. Washington Mystics

Since starting 0-12, the Mystics have been more frisky of late.

11. Dallas Wings

The Wings have been arguably the most disappointing team in the league.

12. Los Angeles Sparks

Two of the Sparksโ€™ seven wins have come against the Aces.
