Las Vegas Aces Sign Cheyenne Parker-Tyus to Strengthen Frontcourt

The former All-Star joins the reigning MVP A'ja Wilson on a one-year deal as the team reshapes its roster after key departures.

Cheyenne Parker-Tyus, a former All-Star forward, has signed a one-year veteran minimum contract worth $78,831 with the Las Vegas Aces.
The 6-foot-4 forward averaged 15.0 points and 6.7 rebounds during her All-Star season in 2023 but was limited to 25 games last season due to an ankle injury.
The Aces have faced significant offseason challenges, including the departures of Kelsey Plum, Tiffany Hayes, and Kate Martin, as well as injury concerns for Elizabeth Kitley and Alysha Clark.
Parker-Tyus is expected to provide much-needed frontcourt support for three-time MVP A'ja Wilson, who had a career-best season averaging 26.9 points and 11.8 rebounds.
Las Vegas also bolstered its backcourt by acquiring Jewell Loyd in a January trade, signaling a strategic effort to remain championship contenders after back-to-back titles in 2022 and 2023.
