After the game
The Las Vegas Aces had no problem bouncing back from Sunday's Game 1 loss, blowing out the Indiana Fever 90-68 in Game 2 of the WNBA Semifinals. Vegas won the scoring differential in all four quarters over a Fever team without stars Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham.
The Aces take their first win of the best-of-5 series behind a team-leading 25 points and 9 rebounds from A'ja Wilson, who was crowned as league MVP for the fourth time on Sunday. Five total Aces players finished with double digits, including NaLyssa Smith with 18 points and Jackie Young with 13.
The Aces head to Indianapolis with the series tied at 1 win apiece. Las Vegas is two wins away from punching its ticket to the WNBA Finals, where the team would look to win its third world title in four years.

The Aces lost their first contest against the Fever on Sunday, 89-73, but still made history with A'ja Wilson being named WNBA Most Valuable Player for a fourth time. Wilson is now the only player to be named MVP more than three times.
A Game 2 bounce back would tie the Aces and Fever before the teams head to Indianapolis on Friday to continue their best-of-five series.
4x WNBA MVP Wilson is verging another milestone — two more steals and she'll be the third player in WNBA history with 900 points, 450 rebounds, 100 blocks, 100 assists and 50 steals behind Lisa Leslie and Candace Parker.
Chelsea Gray holds a 95 record for 3-pointers, putting her at No. 6 tied with Katie Douglas on the all-time playoffs 3-pointer list. Jackie Young could rise up that list and surpass Allie Quigley for No. 18 with three more 3-pointers.
Head coach Becky Hammon could tie the No. 8 spot in the top 10 all-time WNBA postseason coaching victories with Dan Hughes. She needs one more playoff win to tie her record at 22 with Hughes.
Tipoff is set for 6:30 p.m. and will air nationally on ESPN.
