"Following its 84-72 win, Las Vegas will attempt to seal the series and book its spot in the WNBA Finals on Sunday at Gainbridge Fieldhouse (3 p.m. ET, ABC). The second game of the night features the 1-seeded Minnesota Lynx attempting to come back from Tuesday night's overtime loss to the 4-seeded Phoenix Mercury in their tied semifinals series (ESPN2)."
"The Aces are one win away from returning to the WNBA Finals with a chance to secure their third title in four years. That would have sounded improbable earlier this season when the team stumbled out of the gate with a 12-13 record. For Las Vegas to get the win Friday despite an off day from four-time MVP A'ja Wilson -- she finished 6-for-20 and missed 12 straight shots after making her field goal -- bodes well for its chances of closing out the series."
Las Vegas Aces defeated the Indiana Fever 84-72 in Game 3 to take a 2-1 lead in the WNBA semifinals. The Aces can clinch the series Sunday at Gainbridge Fieldhouse and advance to the WNBA Finals with one more win. Jackie Young scored 25 points and NaLyssa Smith added 16 while A'ja Wilson struggled, finishing 6-for-20. Las Vegas tightened its defense late, holding Indiana to five points in the first eight minutes of the fourth quarter. Indiana faces the challenge of season-ending injuries, including Caitlin Clark, and must win Game 4 at home to stay alive.
