LAS VEGAS — Las Vegas Aces coach Becky Hammon asked star guard Jackie Young how she was feeling on Saturday. Young had admitted to Hammon that she was fatigued in Game 1. That she had no legs and no lift after a grueling five-game semifinals win over the Indiana Fever. Young had spent the lead-up to Game 2 recovering. “Good. I’ll have my legs tomorrow,” Young told her coach. “I believe her,” Hammon said Sunday. For good reason. It didn’t matter that Young was in street clothes during the Aces’ m
The mindset in Las Vegas is a championship-winning one, and they delivered it on Sunday. The No. 2 Aces successfully defended home court, pulling two wins away from a third title in four years with a 91-78 win over the Phoenix Mercury.
The Fever only had Caitlin Clark on the court for 13 games this season, but the team's head coach showed strong support Friday for the injured star amid the ongoing CBA battle between the WNBA and its players.
Las Vegas guard Jackie Young scored 21 of her 32 points in the third quarter as the Aces romped away to a 91-78 victory over the Phoenix Mercury to take a 2-0 lead in the WNBA Finals on Sunday.Young's third-quarter outburst was a record for points scored in a single quarter of a WNBA Finals game and the Aces, up by nine after a tight first half that featured five lead changes, out-scored the Mercury 30-24 in the period to seize control.
LAS VEGAS — In the Las Vegas Aces’ run through the WNBA playoffs, there has been one consistent concern for Becky Hammon: how her team handles success. They followed up a dominant victory in the postseason opener — their 17th in a row — by blowing a double-digit lead to the Seattle Storm in the second game. Then, they eked out a win in Game 3 of the first round to keep their season alive, but came out flat against the Indiana Fever in the first game of the semifinals. And with a chance to close
Phoenix Mercury coach Nate Tibbets was critical of his team’s defense after allowing the Las Vegas Aces to average 90 points through the first two games of the WNBA Finals. Defense isn't the Mercury's only problem as they head home. Down 2-0 after a 91-78 loss on Sunday, Phoenix needs to rediscover its bench and its 3-point touch in Games 3 and 4 at home next week.
Giannis Antetokounmpo returned to Milwaukee from Greece this fall with a rare sense of fulfillment. Over the course of his decorated career, the Bucks superstar has already achieved almost every major goal he set for himself. He is an NBA champion, a two-time MVP, and the first Greek player ever to lead a team to […]
Atlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson was on track for a breakout season last year, with some even suggesting he was playing at an All-Star level, before a torn labrum in his left shoulder cut his campaign short in January. Now, nine months later, Johnson has fully recovered and is eager to get back on the […]
The Las Vegas Aces moved a step closer to their third championship in four years as they overwhelmed the Phoenix Mercury 91-78 on Sunday to take a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven WNBA finals. Jackie Young led the way for the Aces with 32 points, 21 of which came in a scintillating third quarter surge. Young, who tied a career playoff high in total points, fell just short of the league record of 22 points for any postseason quarter.
At a press conference after Thursday’s practice, Seth Curry spoke about his decision to finally join the Golden State Warriors, a move he had resisted for most of his career despite the obvious family connection. As reported by Sam Gordon of The San Francisco Chronicle, Curry explained that for years he felt the need to […]
LAS VEGAS — Before every game, Phoenix Mercury coach Nate Tibbetts remembers his late father, Fred. During starting lineup announcements, Tibbetts thinks about telling his dad how he hopes Phoenix’s 3-pointers will fall, about the importance of defending at a high level and the hope for his dad to look out for them in the ensuing 40 minutes. Fred died of colon cancer in 2008. But Tibbetts said he still feels his dad’s strength. Tibbetts knows he wouldn’t be where he is — coaching in the WNBA Fin
