The WNBA Finals have been all Las Vegas so far. The Aces have dominated the series, winning three straight and sitting just one victory away from a third consecutive championship. However, not all WNBA fans are impressed — at least not when it comes to ticket prices and perceived value.
According to TickPick, seats for Game 3 dipped as low as $10 on Wednesday, prompting fans to take shots at the league and the quality of play.

“They must make a ton of alcohol sales just so people actually enjoy the game.”
“Well who wanna watch a blowout and a sweep.”
Despite the online mockery, the Aces and the Phoenix Mercury delivered an entertaining showdown in front of a sold-out crowd at the Mortgage Matchup Center. The Aces pulled off a 90–88 win, putting them one step closer to history.
Four-time MVP A’ja Wilson once again took center stage, dropping 34 points and 14 rebounds on an incredible 11-of-12 shooting night. And when the game came down to the final possession, she delivered. With less than a second left, Wilson drained the game-winner — sealing the victory and sending Aces fans into a frenzy.
WNBA Fans React to Wilson’s Heroics
Wilson’s clutch performance instantly lit up social media as fans celebrated the shot that might just define another championship run.
“One game away? They were one game away when they won the last one.”

“She may have said some unlikable things before but it aint no denying that she unstoppable on that court.”
“Hang it in the louvre,” referring to the photo capturing her game-winner.
Beyond the moment, Wilson also made history — her 34-point night set a new record for the most points scored in a single WNBA postseason, surpassing Napheesa Collier’s mark.
Now, with momentum fully on their side, the Aces have a chance to cement themselves as one of the most dominant dynasties the league has ever seen.
