The Las Vegas Aces (2-2) return home to for a Friday night game against the Los Angeles Sparks (2-4).
The game starts at 7 pm PT, will be broadcast nationally on ION and locally on Vegas 34.
The Aces are coming off a road trip in Seattle, dropping the game last Sunday 102-82 against the Storm.
It was Aces guard Jewell Loyd’s first return to Seattle after spending ten years with the team.
The Aces recorded their best shooting night of the season so far, shooting 43.9% from the floor and hit on 36% of their 3-point attempts. A’ja Wilson scored a team-high 15 points, while Jackie Young and Chelsea Gray both added 14 points.
Rookie Elizabeth Kitley added in a season-high 11 points and five rebounds coming off the bench.
Even in the loss, A’ja Wilson collected another accolade in her already storied career. Wilson earned her 500th career assist and tied teammate Loyd to extend her streak of 55 consecutive double-digit scoring games — the longest active streak in the league and 8th longest in WNBA history. Wilson also passed Chamique Holdsclaw to reach 27th in league history in rebounds with 2,130.
The Sparks start their 2025 season with a 2-4 start, most recently dropping an 88-82 decision against Atlanta. Dearica Hamby led the Sparks with 28 points and Azurá Stevens led with 11 rebounds. Former Aces guard Kelsey Plum reached 3,500 career points last game and moved up to 18th all-time in WNBA career 3-pointers. The Sparks added to the roster with Plum this past off-season.
Las Vegas is 47-56 all-time against Los Angeles and 29-22 at home.
This is the first of four matchups between the two teams. They square off against each other another again on June 11 at home.
