WNBA MVP race: How Napheesa Collier, Alyssa Thomas, A'ja Wilson and Allisha Gray stack up with 2 weeks to go

The WNBA MVP race is exceptionally tight this season, with no clear frontrunner emerging due to chaotic standings and injuries affecting key players. Outside of the Minnesota Lynx, no team has been consistently dominant, and injuries have sidelined top contenders like Napheesa Collier.

Napheesa Collier initially stood out as the favorite, leading the league in scoring and field goals made while propelling the Lynx to the top of the standings. However, her candidacy is complicated by a recent ankle injury that caused her to miss seven games, during which her team performed well without her, raising questions about her indispensability.

Meanwhile, the Atlanta Dream's rise to elite status has been fueled by Allisha Gray's elevated performance, as she averages 18.8 points per game on a balanced offensive team. With multiple players excelling, the MVP decision remains highly contested, and voters will need to weigh various factors, including individual stats, team success, and the impact of injuries.
