Overview

• Las Vegas beat Dallas 106-87 behind 18-of-34 shooting from three, the second-most threes in a WNBA game and the most ever against the Wings, with A’ja Wilson scoring 34 and Chelsea Gray tying her franchise mark with 14 assists.
• The seven-game streak has pulled the Aces firmly back into the seeding race for a top-four spot with nine regular-season games remaining and a path to first-round home court.
• Wilson is averaging 26.1 points and 13.3 rebounds during the run, added the league’s first 30-point, 20-rebound game, leads this season in 30-point outings, and moved to ninth on the all-time blocks list.
• After a 111-58 loss to Minnesota on Aug. 2, Becky Hammon had players build their own scouting reports, and the Aces have since posted a top-five defense and become the league’s No. 2 rebounding team.
• Jewell Loyd has boosted scoring in a bench role, and Hammon is openly backing Wilson as the league’s most dominant player as betting markets shorten her MVP odds, reported at +600 by BetMGM.
