WNBA Champions: Las Vegas Aces
This team has been something out of a fairytale. As we are repeated on saying, the Aces were 14-14 on August 2nd following a record 53-Point defeat to the Minnesota Lynx. This was a test and the Aces went on the "ace" it going forward. From that point on, the Aces did not lose another single game until the season came to an end.
From then, the Aces clutched up in Game 3 to beat the Storm on the heels ofJackie Young. They then went on the face the Fever without Caitlin Clark and despite being tested, they passed once again in Game 5. This came on the heels of a 35-Point effort by Wilson.
The Aces ultimately entered the WNBA Finals are slight favorites. The Mercury should have been no easy task, but they were made one of ease. The Aces, in mindblowing fashion, swept the Mercury for another WNBA title.
A'ja Wilson Wins Another MVP Award
Wilson is now entering G.O.A.T. conversation. This season alone, she has won WNBA MVP, Finals MVP, DPOY, All-Defensive First Team, All-Star Honors, WNBA Peak Performer, Scoring Champion, and Blocks Leader. This is truly one of a kind. If you are not stunned, then I am sorry for you.
A'JA WILSON. FIRST TO EVER DO IT 🐐

The 2025 Las Vegas Aces: A Legacy
The Las Vegas Aces made Becky Hammon their new head coach just 4 seasons ago.

Becky Hammon has showed what it takes to win the WNBA title. Similar to the NBA of the 2010's, they required a big three and a supporting bench. Wilson-Young-Gray has been tremendous down the stretch. Without either of them, they may not be here. As far as the bench, the Aces had elite efforts from Loyd, Dana Evans, NaLyssa Smith, and all others.
Hammon had been very critical of this team mid-season and they responded. It is all about motivation and execution. The Aces did this better than anyone else. May they bathe in success.
