Things are looking up again for the Las Vegas Aces. They have extended their win streak to three games after defeating Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky on the road Thursday night to the tune of a 95-83 score.
There was no stopping the Aces in that contest, particularly the trio of A’ja Wilson, Kelsey Plum, and Jackie Young, who took turns ripping the Sky’s defense. The three even made some history, as they established a new record in the league, per StatMamba.
“A’ja Wilson, Kelsey Plum, and Jackie Young each had 20+ PTS tonight. This is their 7th game doing so, which breaks the record for most by a trio in WNBA history.”
The Las Vegas Aces are humming
