A’ja Wilson is putting together another incredible week, averaging (33.0) points, (8.5) rebounds, and (6.5) assists across the Las Vegas Aces’ first two wins of the week.
Tonight, she’ll look to keep that momentum rolling when the Aces host the first-place Minnesota Lynx.
On Monday, the four-time MVP came within one assist of her first career triple-double, finishing with 34 points, 12 rebounds, and 9 assists against the Seattle Storm. She followed that performance with her third 30-point game of the season, scoring 32 points against the Portland Fire. Wilson is tied with Brittney Sykes for the most 30-point games in the league this season, and Las Vegas is (3-0) when she reaches that total.
Through 12 games, Wilson is averaging (26.4) points, (9.3) rebounds, and (2.3) blocks, leading the league in both scoring and blocks. If she maintains those leads through the end of the season, it would mark her third consecutive scoring title and fifth straight season leading the league in blocks.
A win tonight would move Wilson and the Aces into first place in the league standings. Can they get it done against Minnesota? We’ll find out tonight. ✨
