AFTER THE GAME

The Las Vegas Aces keep their win streak alive on Thursday night at Michelob ULTRA Arena, dominating their ninth straight match up, this time against the Phoenix Mercury 83-61. Along with A’ja Wilson recording a double-double, five Aces players put up double-digit figures including Dana Evans coming off the bench with 17 points.

Aces fans’ corgis also graced the court for a race at halftime in honor of Megan Gustafson’s book release about she and her pup, Pancake. The Aces go on a three-game road trip next, starting in Washington on Saturday against the Mystics at noon.


BEFORE THE GAME

After narrowly defeating the Mercury last week, the Aces have their sights set on a second consecutive win against Phoenix on Thursday night.

With the hopes of extending their eight game winning streak to nine, the Aces will host the Mercury at Michelob ULTRA Arena.

Averaging 28.7 points with her eyes on the title of 2025 M'VP and Defensive Player of the Year, A'ja Wilson leads the league in scoring and rebounds over her past seven games.

Tonight's star pin design, Jackie Young, sits at second highest in scoring for the team, with an average of 16.7 points overall.

Chelsea Gray chipped in to get the Aces on their winning streak with 7.2 assists, which is up two from her 2025 average.

With an average 14.1 points and double digit scores in nine out of the last 10 games, Jewell Loyd is putting in the work off the bench.

NaLyssa Smith rounds out the team with 7.5 points and 6.5 rebounds as the Aces continue to dominate with W's.
