LAS VEGAS — The Aces evened their WNBA semifinal series with the Fever, 1-1, Tuesday night in Las Vegas.
This year's WNBA MVP, A'Ja Wilson, scored 25 points and corralled nine rebounds to push the Aces to a 90-68 win. Wilson enjoyed a bounce-back performance in Game 2 of the series after amassing just 16 points on 6-of-22 shooting in Game 1.
Thanks to Wilson's efforts, the Aces got off to a fast start. Las Vegas led 26-17 at the end of the first quarter, and with about six minutes left in the second quarter, the Aces' lead ballooned to 17 points.
Indiana briefly appeared poised to challenge Las Vegas' lead in the third quarter. With just under nine minutes left in the third period, point guard Odyssey Sims hit two free throws to cut Indiana's deficit to eight, 50-42.
