WNBA betting available at 1xBet

The WNBA runs as a 15-team league. The 2026 season started on May 8, 2026 and runs until October 20, 2026. Following the regular season, the current 2026 edition enters playoffs that decide the champion. Las Vegas Aces hold the title from the 2025 season. Three franchises have each won four titles in the history of this event. You can find WNBA odds at 1xBet for match winners, point spreads and totals across every game.

What is the WNBA basketball competition

Teams compete across a regular season before the playoffs begin. That playoff structure decides the champion rather than a league table alone.

Each year, the competition runs from early summer through the autumn months. You will find all the key structural details in the table that follows.

Table 1 — WNBA key facts

Format and teams in the WNBA 2026 season

The league field sits at 15 teams. Fourteen of those sides are based in the United States, with one club operating out of Canada. This composition sets the stage for a regular season that has grown since the Golden State Valkyries joined in 2025. The schedule now runs to 44 games per side, a number set to rise again by 2027. Play in the 2026 season began on May 8, 2026 and is set to finish on October 20, 2026.

Playoff access is narrow: only the top eight teams qualify for the postseason, which culminates in the WNBA Finals played in November. The format has shifted over time; since 2022, the quarterfinals are best-of-three series while the semifinals run as best-of-five contests. In 2025, the WNBA Finals expanded to a best-of-seven series format.

History weighs heavily here, and three clubs hold the record with 4 titles each: the Houston Comets, Minnesota Lynx, and Seattle Storm. Several others have claimed the trophy three times, including the Dallas Wings, Detroit Shock, Las Vegas Aces, Los Angeles Sparks, and Phoenix Mercury. The remaining winners in the list have secured a single championship between them.

The WNBA 2026 season will follow this established structure of regular play and knockout rounds. You can review the full list of title winners ranked by trophies in the table below.

Past champions and title holders in WNBA

The Las Vegas Aces hold the title after winning in 2025. Starting with 8 teams, the league has seen its field expand and shift since those first campaigns. Houston Comets started the dynasty era by winning the first 4 titles from 1997 to 2000.

As the full season unfolds, the outright market tracks this history. You can find league odds on the championship winner long before the playoffs begin.

Recent winners show a different pattern of dominance. New York Liberty took the trophy in 2024, breaking a run that saw Las Vegas Aces win in both 2022 and 2023. Playoffs decide the champion rather than regular season points alone. To show how quickly the top spot can change, the data below lists the most recent champions.

Types of WNBA bets at 1xBet

The league does not end in a draw. Overtime is played until one team wins, so the match winner market always settles on a single result.

The point spread levels the field when one side is favored heavily. Totals markets ask whether combined points will sit above or below a set line. Quarter and half splits let you focus on specific periods of play rather than the full game.

Player props add depth to a standard slip. You can wager on individual points, rebounds, or assists for any roster member. These lines track personal performance independent of the final score. From the start of the season, the outright market covers the championship winner. Accumulators combine multiple selections into a single bet for higher potential returns.

You will find these options alongside league odds in both pre-match and live sections. In-play betting updates as the clock runs down during each quarter. Cash-out features allow you to settle a position before the final buzzer sounds if conditions shift. Every market settles on the official league result once the game concludes.

Match markets

Because overtime is played until a team wins, the moneyline decides the winner, with the match result market covering that extra period without a draw option. Point spread and totals are the standard alternatives for most slips.

• Point spread (handicap) levels the field by giving one side a points buffer.

• Total points asks whether the combined score goes over or under a set line.

• Quarter and half markets let you bet on smaller segments of the game.

• Player props cover individual stats like rebounds and assists alongside points.

Outright and specials

The outright market runs the full season. You pick the team that will win the WNBA championship after the playoffs conclude. Specials cover individual player achievements like total points or rebounds across the year.
