AFTER THE GAME
The Aces couldn’t recover after a tough loss to Indiana the night before, falling 109–78 to the league-leading Minnesota Lynx. A’ja Wilson led the way with 15 points and 7 boards, while Jackie Young chipped in 14 and 5. But Las Vegas struggled to find offensive rhythm—no other player reached double figures. Now 12–13 on the season, the Aces will look to regroup after dropping two games in less than 24 hours.

The Aces are coming off of an end to the team's three-game win streak after falling to the Indiana Fever Thursday night.
A’ja Wilson, who averaged 31.7 points in the Aces’ three-game winning streak, led Las Vegas (12-12) with 20 points. Jackie Young scored 19 and NaLyssa Smith had 10 points and 10 rebounds.
The Lynx, who opened the year 9-0 and are 7-3 over their past 10 games, continue to be led by 2024 WNBA Defensive Player of the Year Napheesa Collier, who, behind Wilson, has recorded the second-most 30+ point games this season.
The Lynx rank among the top three in the league in several statistical categories, including No. 1 for field goal percentage, assists and blocked shots, No. 2 for scoring, and No. 3 for 3-point percentage and free throw percentage.
In the last game between the two teams on June 17, the Aces were without Wilson and Megan Gustafson.
Loyd led the team with 12 points, while Young and Gray both recorded six assists in the loss. The two teams will meet twice more this season, both in Las Vegas.
Tipoff is set for 4:30 p.m., and you can catch all the action on The Spot Vegas 34.
