PREVIEW

The Las Vegas Aces are back at Michelob ULTRA Arena to host the Minnesota Lynx on Tuesday night with the hope to not only get a win, but also come back from losing their last two matches against Seattle and Los Angeles.

The Lynx are ranked first in the western conference with an 8-3 record while the Aces are third in the west at 5-4.

Though the Aces are coming off of a couple of losses, star center A'ja Wilson became the first player in WNBA history to average at least 25 points, 10 rebounds and three assists through her last nine-games on Sunday.

Wilson was announced as a member of the 2024 USA women's National Team this week as well along with Chelsea Gray, Kelsey Plum and Jackie Young.

The Aces and the Lynx tip off at 7 p.m.
