At 27, Aces superstar A’ja Wilson is already among Sin City’s greatest all-time athletes — armed with two WNBA championships and a pair of MVPs to show for it.
WNBA
The Aces are the greatest team in WNBA history, with all-time great talent and statistics that reflect their historical dominance.
Aces guard Kelsey Plum scored a game-high 26 points Sunday in Game 1 of the WNBA Finals, relying not on her shooting but rather her improved finishing around the rim.
Aces guard Jackie Young was an egregious omission from the WNBA’s recently announced all-defensive teams. She’s one of the best two-way players in the league.
Now 27 and approaching the peak of her powers, Wilson should be rightfully rewarded for one of the greatest single seasons in the WNBA’s 27-year history.
In two matchups against the New York Liberty without do-it-all-forward Candace Parker, the Aces have been outscored by 57 points and outrebounded 97-52.
Only players from the Aces received comparable introductory ovations to Brittney Griner at the WNBA All-Star Game on Saturday at Michelob Ultra Arena.
With two WNBA championships, a Finals MVP and five All-Star selections in hand, Aces guard Chelsea Gray isn’t simply an All-Star. She’s one of the best ever.
The Aces destroyed the New York Liberty on Thursday at Michelob Ultra Arena, establishing themselves as the WNBA’s lone superteam.
With WNBA legend Candace Parker joining fellow standouts A’ja Wilson, Chelsea Gray, Kelsey Plum and Jackie Young, the Aces are chasing history in 2023.
The Aces haven’t addressed Dearica Hamby’s allegation that she was discriminated against because of her pregnancy, a claim being investigated by the WNBA’s Players Association.
Aces coach Becky Hammon wasn’t just good this season. She was excellent, phenomenal, amazing — or any other superlative that serves as a synonym.
Chelsea Gray concluded perhaps the best individual postseason run in league history, converting 9-of-13 field goals and adding six assists in title-clinching win.
The Aces won the first two games of the WNBA Finals because they defended with effort and urgency. They lost the third one Thursday because they elected not to do either.
Kelsey Plum eradicated any memory of an atrocious Game 1 outing by scoring 20 on 7-of-13 shooting to go with seven assists in 35 minutes.
