Las Vegas Aces star A’ja Wilson has been voted the 2025 WNBA Most Valuable Player, marking the fourth time she has won the award and breaking a new record.
She’s the first four-time MVP winner in the WNBA’s history. Sheryl Swoopes, Lisa Leslie and Lauren Jackson are all three-time MVP winners.
The seven-time WNBA All-Star received 51 of 72 first-place votes from a panel of sportswriters and broadcasters. Wilson was presented with the MVP trophy on Friday.
