Fox Sports attempted to answer the way-too-early question <\/a>about the league champion for next season. If the betting odds are of any indication, it is going to be an uphill battle for the Wings to win a WNBA title,<\/a> let alone sniff a series appearance.<\/p>\n Sep 11, 2025; Arlington, Texas, USA; Dallas Wings guard Paige Bueckers (5) looks on during the second half against the Phoenix Mercury at College Park Center. Mandatory Credit: Jerome Miron-Imagn Images \/ Jerome Miron-Imagn Images<\/p>\n Out of the 15 teams (including the two expansion teams in Portland and Toronto), a sprinkle on the Wings is a decent payout, at least according to the odds provided via BetMGM. The Wings are one of two teams at +4500, meaning a $10 bet would payout $460, which is the same as the WNBA’s Washington Mystics.<\/p>\n Nonetheless, though, it’s clear Bueckers is ready for the future and wants to push toward completing a turnaround.<\/p>\n READ MORE: Does Dallas Wings star Paige Bueckers go before Caitlin Clark in WNBA fantasy draft?<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cI think the best teams who succeed and win championships are teams that want to fight and go to war with each other, and are essentially a family,” Bueckers said via Dallas Hoops Journal last month. <\/a>“To be able to really enjoy being around each other, enjoy coming to work \u2014 that\u2019s the most exciting part, honestly.\u201d<\/p>\n Bueckers says she’s excited to see how she evolves moving forward, recognizing that she is the face of the franchise.<\/p>\n “I think just expanding in all areas,\u201d Bueckers added. \u201cI feel like there\u2019s improvement in every single area of basketball\u2014it\u2019s impossible to reach perfection. So everything.\u201d<\/p>\n The Wings are still in search of a new coach, as they let Chris Koclanes go at the end of the season. Given how young Bueckers is and how much hype was around her throughout her rookie season, the Wings must be set up for future success, given how much the team will continue to rely on Bueckers’ greatness night in and night out.<\/p>\n For now, though, the odds are stacked against Dallas.<\/p>\n READ MORE: Three draft prospects to keep an eye on for Dallas Wings<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
