With five overall and three-straight WNBA MVP awards, A’ja Wilson’s all-time greatness becomes even more undeniable
A’ja Wilson’s excellence is undeniable, as she earns her fifth overall and third-straight WNBA MVP award.
A’ja Wilson has become even more unquestionably exceptional. Already the sole four-time WNBA MVP, she broke the mold by becoming the first player to secure five overall MVP awards, including three consecutive seasons. Her extraordinary dominance is evident in her record-breaking statistics, with 26.2 points per game and the league's best 1.9 blocks per game for three straight seasons.
Wilson's prowess was recognized as she amassed 713 points from 65 of 74 first-place votes, earning her the 2026 WNBA Most Valuable Player title in a landslide. The Las Vegas Aces captain also led the league in scoring for the third consecutive year and swept all four Western Conference Player of the Month awards, marking her fifth achievement of the season.
Despite her stellar performance, the Las Vegas Aces are down 0-2 in the WNBA semifinals due to a series of injuries.
