We will have a 30th season of WNBA basketball this summer at US betting apps<\/a>, with the league avoiding a costly lockout and free agents free to sign where they please starting on April 12.<\/p>\n One such free agent is two-time MVP Breanna Stewart, who is one of the biggest names in the WNBA’s landmark 2026 free agency class. With that in mind, Bookies.com<\/a> compiled speculative odds on where the former UConn star signs next.<\/p>\n Breanna Stewart Next Team Odds<\/p>\n 2026 WNBA Season<\/p>\n TeamOddsProb.Chance<\/p>\n New York Liberty Fav<\/p>\n Stay<\/p>\n -50083.3%<\/p>\n Indiana Fever<\/p>\n +70012.5%<\/p>\n Atlanta Dream<\/p>\n +10009.1%<\/p>\n Las Vegas Aces<\/p>\n +14006.7%<\/p>\n Portland Fire<\/p>\n +18005.3%<\/p>\n Toronto Tempo<\/p>\n +20004.8%<\/p>\n Any Other Team<\/p>\n +25003.8%<\/p>\n Odds via bookies.com \u00a0|\u00a0 Implied probability calculated from moneyline odds \u00a0|\u00a0 Subject to change<\/p>\n Where Will Breanna Stewart Go Next?\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n Breanna Stewart is the engine of the New York Liberty’s championship window,\u00a0a five-time All-WNBA First Team\u00a0selection\u00a0who restructured her own deal to keep the roster intact.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n She enters free agency alongside teammates Sabrina Ionescu, Jonquel Jones, and Natasha Cloud, giving New York one of the most complex cap puzzles of any team this offseason.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n Stewart has been vocal about wanting to stay in New York, and the Liberty’s front office has expressed equal confidence in a reunion. The one variable adding genuine intrigue: a mounting injury history that includes knee and Achilles concerns, which complicates the length and value of any long-term deal. Our odds reflect strong\u00a0loyalty, but\u00a0not\u00a0a certainty.\u00a0<\/p>\n There\u2019s\u00a0also the difficulty that comes from keeping players of Stewart\u2019s level under the WNBA\u2019s new and improved $7 million salary cap, with RotoWire.com estimating her to be one of two players (along with\u00a0A\u2019Ja\u00a0Wilson of the Las Vegas Aces) to earn the league\u2019s new\u00a0$1.4 million \u2018Supermax\u2019 contract level.<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n If Stewart gets that deal,\u00a0it\u2019d\u00a0leave $5.6 million for the other three free agents from the Big Apple, with Ionescu projected to earn the full veteran max value of $1.2 million, along with Jones taking home a cool $1 million, per the team at RotoWire.com.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n While we\u00a0don\u2019t\u00a0have a market projection for Cloud, we know that New York would have $3.4 million to\u00a0spend on\u00a0the rest of their roster if they paid the three above their projected values.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n Still, we think that New York will keep her, with the Liberty holding commanding, -500 (or 83.3%) odds of keeping her in town for a fourth season with the club in\u00a02026.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n Who Could Swoop in and Land Stewart?\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n Should Stewart move on, keep an eye on teams like the Indiana Fever (+700), Atlanta Dream (+1000), Las Vegas Aces (+1400)\u00a0and the duo of expansion clubs, in the Portland Fire (+1800) and Toronto Tempo (+2000).\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n The prospect of Stewart plugging in beside Indiana\u2019s pair of former No. 1 picks, in Caitlin Clark and forward Aliyah Boston, is\u00a0enticing to\u00a0hoops fans of all backgrounds.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n Still, given her comments about staying with the Liberty long-term, the\u00a0most likely outcome\u00a0as of now is for \u2018Stewie\u2019 to return for a fourth season with the 2024 WNBA champions\u00a0this summer.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
