Chelsea Gray turned up the heat in crunch time, scoring 10 of her 16 points in the fourth quarter, then sealing the win by stealing the Mercury’s inbound pass and hitting two free throws with less than a second left. She also had a team high 9 assists.
Jackie Young added a versatile performance with 17 points, 7 rebounds, and 5 assists, helping the Aces take down the Mercury.
