Las Vegas Aces star A’ja Wilson has been named the WNBA’s 2024 MVP, marking her third career MVP title (’20, ’22, ’24). Wilson received all 67 first-place votes to become the second player in league history to win the honor unanimously. The award places her among WNBA legends Lisa Leslie, Lauren Jackson, and Sheryl Swoopes as three-time league MVPs.
Wilson’s 2024 season has been historic, marked by multiple record-breaking achievements. She broke the WNBA single-season scoring record in becoming the first player to surpass 1,000 points in a season. She also became the first player to lead the league in scoring, rebounds, and blocks in a season. Her MVP-caliber performance has played a key role in propelling the Aces back to the playoffs, where Wilson hopes to lead her team to a third consecutive WNBA title. Tonight, the Aces will take on the Seattle Storm in game one of the opening round, tipping off at 9:00 ET on ESPN.
