Entering the WNBA's 25th season, nine different franchises have clinched at least one league title.
Which WNBA franchise has won most championships?
Three teams in the Minnesota Lynx, Houston Comets and Seattle Storm have won the most titles, combining for half of the 24 WNBA championships with four apiece.
The Comets (1997, 1998, 1999, 2000) and Los Angeles Sparks (2001, 2002) are the only two franchises to have won back-to-back.
Teams | Finals appearances | Championships | Years won |
Minnesota Lynx | 6 | 4 | 2011, 2013, 2015, 2017 |
Houston Comets | 4 | 4 | 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000 |
Seattle Storm | 4 | 4 | 2004, 2010, 2018, 2020 |
Los Angeles Sparks | 5 | 3 | 2001, 2002, 2016 |
Detroit Shock | 4 | 3 | 2003, 2006, 2008 |

Three WNBA franchises have one championship to their name: Indiana Fever (2012), Washington Mystics (2019) and Sacramento Monarchs (2005).
Of the nine, two have since folded in the Comets (2008) and Monarchs (2009) while the Shock relocated twice, first to Tulsa (2010-15) and then to Dallas (2016-present).
Ahead of the 2021 season, the WNBA announced season-long 25th anniversary celebrations and unveiled a new official game ball.
