WNBA legend Lauren Jackson has selected A'ja Wilson as her pick for the 2026 MVP award. Jackson acknowledged other strong candidates like Caitlin Clark and Paige Bueckers but ultimately believes Wilson’s performance this season sets her apart.
Jackson, a three-time MVP herself, stated her choice in a recent interview with All-Star Magazine. “A’ja. A’ja Wilson,” she said. “Again, she has had another remarkable season, and I don't think anyone can really stack up to her.” She also mentioned Breanna Stewart, Paige Bueckers, and Caitlin Clark as deserving players.
Wilson is currently averaging 26.0 points, 9.5 rebounds, and 2.0 blocks per game. Jackson believes Wilson’s consistent elite performance is often overlooked. Wilson already has four WNBA MVP awards to her name.
