Las Vegas Aces vs. Phoenix Mercury100 – 82

What to Know

  • Las Vegas dominant: The Aces rolled Phoenix 100-82, an 18-point statement win. Las Vegas continues to look like the team no one wants to face heading into the postseason.
  • Connecticut in control: The Sun handled Toronto 95-81 with room to spare. Connecticut's defense and transition game remain elite late in the season.
  • Washington survives Chicago: The Mystics edged the Sky 101-93 in the highest-scoring game of the night. An eight-point margin doesn't capture how competitive it was.
  • Minnesota suffocates Indiana: The Lynx held the Fever to just 66 points, winning by 20. Indiana's offense went cold at the worst possible time in the standings race.
  • Golden State steals one: The Valkyries escaped Los Angeles 76-75 in a nail-biter. One possession decided it — a massive result for Golden State's playoff positioning.
