LAS VEGAS — A’ja Wilson scored 22 points and became the fastest player in WNBA history to 5,000 points as the Las Vegas Aces beat the Connecticut Sun 85-59 on Wednesday night.
She was given a standing ovation by the crowd and made the first of her two free throws. Wilson left the game with 2:22 remaining in the first half with only two points scored and four rebounds as the Aces lost to the Liberty 87-78.
The Liberty currently own a 12-6 record coming into this matchup and are the third-best team in the entire league. Sabrina Ionescu, Breanna Stewart, Natasha Cloud and Marine Johannes have all been instrumental in their success. 2024 Finals MVP Jonquel Jones was brilliant as well, but she’s been sidelined with a sprained ankle since mid-June.
With Marina Mabrey missing her fifth consecutive game due to a knee injury, the host Sun could not match up with the Aces' firepower.
Angel Reese continues to put up legendary statistics. Her latest feat for the Chicago Sky came Sunday, when she had 16 points, 17 rebounds and six assists. The key to history here comes in the points-rebounds combo: It was her fourth 15-15 game in a row. That's never been done in the WNBA.
