10. Jewell Loyd, Las Vegas Aces

A 2016 MVP and WNBA champion, she’s a nine-time All-Star and ranks in the top 10 all-time in scoring. Renowned for her efficiency and defense, Ogwumike averaged 16.7 points, 7.6 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 1.9 steals per game. This will be her second season on the Storm after playing 12 seasons with the Los Angeles Sparks.

A five-time All-Star, Alyssa Thomas holds the WNBA record for career triple-doubles (13) and set single-season records for assists (317) and double-doubles (28) in 2023.

6. Sabrina Ionescu, New York Liberty

The second-highest ranked player on the reigning champions, Sabrina Ionescu, comes in at No. 6. Surprisingly, there are enough points to go around with three players on this list.

The seventh-year Dallas Wings star breaks into the top five on this list. She has a stalwart on her team, averaging 22.2 points, 4.6 rebounds, 5.1 assists, and 2.1 steals per game. She is the complete package with the ability to burn you on offense and lock you down on defense.

4. Caitlin Clark, Indiana Fever

There is no denying that Caitlin Clark is the most famous women’s basketball player at the moment. She was the No. 1 overall pick in the WNBA Draft last season and immediately made her team a playoff contender. In her rookie season out of Iowa, she averaged 19.2 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 8.4 assists per game, destined to improve. Defensively, she also averaged 1.3 steals and 0.7 blocks per game.

The 2024 Defensive Player of the Year averaged 20.4 points, 9.7 rebounds, and 3.4 assists per game last season. Napheesa Collier brought the Minnesota Lynx to the runner-up position after losing in five games to the New York Liberty in the championship. She is the true meaning of “defense wins championships.”

2. Breanna Stewart, New York Liberty

As we get into the top two players in the WNBA, we start with the highest-ranked player on the 2024 WNBA championship team, the Liberty. Breanna Stewart has been a staple in the WNBA ranks for almost a decade. She came into the league averaging almost 20 points per game and is still doing it 10 years later.

The 2024 WNBA Kia MVP remains at the top of the list. A’ja Wilson was nothing short of ridiculously dominant on the court last season. She averaged 26.9 points, 11.9 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.8 steals, and 2.6 blocks per game. She led the Aces to back-to-back WNBA championships in 2022 and 2023.
