The two-time defending champion Las Vegas Aces (24-13) are starting to play their best basketball at the right time. After struggling for the first few months of the season to find momentum, they have won two straight and seven of the last 10 games heading into today’s huge matchup with the Connecticut Sun (27-10). Heading into today, Connecticut has also won seven of the last 10 games and three games straight to build momentum at the right time of the season. The acquisition of Marina Mabrey has given Connecticut more depth and pop on the offensive end around MVP candidate Alyssa Thomas, the fourth leading scorer of all-time, DeWanna Bonner and one of the most balanced rosters in the league.

Since joining Connecticut 13 games ago, Mabrey is averaging 15.1 points, 3.2 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game on 41.7% shooting from three off the bench. In her last two games, Mabrey has scored 45 points on nine-for-17 shooting from three, showing just how dangerous Connecticut can be in the playoffs this season with a shooter of her caliber.
On the other side for Las Vegas, everything is centered around two-time MVP A’ja Wilson. This season, Wilson has only scored fewer than 20 points four times and has 23 double-doubles in 36 games. She has been the best player in the WNBA all season and could be closing in on a record third MVP win, tying her with Sheryl Swoopes, Lisa Leslie and Lauren Jackson.
The play of All-Stars and Olympians Jackie Young, Kelsey Plum and Chelsea Gray around Wilson is what makes Las Vegas special and the team with the best shot to win three straight WNBA championships.
