A’ja Wilson’s numbers in 2025 were like none other.

Nobody in the history of the WNBA — or the NBA, for that matter — has put together a season like the one the 6-foot-4 center did for the Las Vegas Aces this year.

She won the WNBA MVP award for the regular reason. Won the scoring title. Helped her team take the league championship. Was the MVP of the title series.

All that has been done in the same season before on the NBA level, most recently when Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander pulled off the feat this past season. Michael Jordan did all that four times for the Chicago Bulls, while Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for the Milwaukee Bucks and Shaquille O’Neal for the Los Angeles Lakers did it once apiece.

However, they never did it while also reigning as the NBA’s defensive player of the year. Wilson shared that award in the WNBA this season with Alanna Smith of the Minnesota Lynx. And that makes the Aces star’s 2025 resumé unprecedented at pro basketball’s highest levels.

“I think greatness is …” Wilson said after second-seeded Las Vegas beat the fourth-seeded Phoenix Mercury to finish off a four-game sweep of the WNBA Finals on Friday night.

That’s when she got interrupted by Aces fourth-year head coach Becky Hammon: “A’ja Wilson.”

There’s no question: Wilson’s numbers are greatness.

And having accomplishments mentioned alongside the likes of Jordan seemed to blow her away.

“It’s powerful, it really is,” said Wilson, who was the No. 1 pick of the 2018 draft after a stellar collegiate career at South Carolina that included helping the Gamecocks win the 2017 NCAA Division I women’s basketball tournament.

“I still have a little more winning to do before you put me in the conversation with him, but when you’re compared to greats, when you’re compared to legends, that means you’re doing something right, and I am so grateful.”

Here’s look inside the numbers, as Wilson continues cementing her status as one of the game’s all-time greats.

Five years, six titles

Consider this: Wilson has been a champion each of the past five years — with six titles in that span.

She was part of the U.S. team that won gold at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, then captured a WNBA title with the Acse and a World Cup gold medal with the Americans in 2022, another WNBA title in 2023, another gold at the Paris Olympics in 2024 and now a WNBA title this season.

Stat line for all time

Wilson had 31 points, nine rebounds, four assists, three blocked shots and two steals in the title-clinching game Friday night.

There have been only five games in WNBA history when someone did all that in one game. Candace Parker did it twice. Wilson did it the other three times.

It had never been done in the WNBA playoffs before Friday night.

Also, Wilson moved past Parker for No. 3 on the WNBA’s all-time playoff scoring list with her 31 points Friday. Wilson (who also passed Tamika Catchings on that list Friday) has 1,171 points in her playoff career, 22 more than Parker and 30 more than Catchings.

The only ones left for Wilson to catch on the playoff scoring list: Diana Taurasi (1,486) and DeWanna Bonner (1,291).

Another record-setting season

Granted, seasons are longer now in the WNBA, which dates to 1997 and has grown in scope over time. But for the third straight year, Wilson set WNBA records for total points and total rebounds when counting both regular-season and playoff games.

She had 1,126 points in 2023, 1,149 in 2024 and 1,259 this year.

The only other players with more than 1,000 points in a full season are Breanna Stewart of the New York Liberty (1,103 in 2023) and Kelsey Mitchell of the Indiana Fever (1,068 this season).

Wilson had 486 rebounds in 2023, 509 in 2024 and 527 this season. Stewart had 473 in 2023.

And the Aces star also finished the regular season with per-game averages of 23.4 points and 10.2 rebounds for 2025. She is the first player in WNBA history to average at least 20 points and 10 rebounds twice; three other players have done it once.

And some playoff marks

Wilson had 114 points in this season’s WNBA Finals, a record. The previous mark: 110 by Cappie Pondexter for Phoenix in 2007. Wilson played four games in this year’s series — which used a best-of-seven format for the first time in league history — while Pondexter’s record came in a five-game series.

Wilson is now up to 336 points in WNBA Finals games, the third most in league history, behind Maya Moore (441 in 25 games) and Seimone Augustus (362 in 25 games). Wilson has played 15 career games in. the WNBA Finals.

Wilson’s totals of 322 points and 120 rebounds in this year’s playoffs are both WNBA records as well. The previous marks: 285 points by Minnesota’s Napheesa Collier last season and 116 rebounds by New York’s Jonquel Jones in 2023 (she played 10 games, Wilson played 12).

Wilson had five 30-point games in this season’s playoffs, the most in any WNBA postseason. The previous record was three, set by Wilson in 2023.

All before 30, too

Wilson doesn’t turn 30 until next August.

No player in WNBA history has more total points (including playoffs) before turning 30 than Wilson, who is up to 6,890. Lauren Jackson had 6,223 before turning 30, which was the pre-30 mark before Wilson came along. (When factoring regular-season games only, Jackson remains No. 1 with 5,757 points, just ahead of Wilson’s 5,719.)

Wilson also has more rebounds before turning 30 — again, counting playoffs — than any other WNBA player. Tina Charles had 2,884 in regular-season games before turning 30, while Wilson is now at 2,495. But when adding in playoffs, Wilson is up to 3,039, just ahead of Charles’ 3,025.
