Las Vegas Aces Secure 8th Straight Win As They Get Hot At The Right Time

Las Vegas Aces Extend Winning Streak to Eight

The Las Vegas Aces are officially on fire. With their 74-72 win over the Atlanta Dream on August 19 as they locked in their 8th straight victory. A’ja Wilson led the way again with 32 points and 12 rebounds, reminding everyone why she’s a strong candidate for MVP. Jackie Young added 16 points and 7 rebounds.

The Dream put up a fight, but Las Vegas controlled the glass and hit over 45% from the field, proving once more that their balance of inside power and perimeter shooting is on a strong streak. With this game, the Aces sit firmly in the playoff seeding at number 5 but could move back up to 4th with a win against the Mercury on Thursday.

Next Up: Aces vs. Mercury – August 21

The Aces aren’t slowing down as they look ahead to a home showdown against the Phoenix Mercury on Thursday, August 21. Phoenix, powered by consistent team play will look to end Las Vegas’ streak.

But given how the Aces are clicking—especially with Wilson dominating and Young acting as a do-it-all guard—they’ll enter as favorites. If Vegas can keep their defense tight and maintain their scoring pace, win number nine could be just around the corner.
