PREVIEW: The Las Vegas Aces will close out their remarkable regular season with a road game against the Los Angeles Sparks, carrying an impressive 15-game winning streak into the contest. The Aces come in with some notable shooting strengths, ranking 2nd in efficient 3-point and free throw shooting, and 3rd in high-frequency midrange attempts. MVP candidate A'ja Wilson has transformed the team's earlier season struggles, leading Las Vegas to an unbeaten run and positioning them just a half-game behind the Atlanta Dream, with a crucial tiebreaker advantage. Wilson is having a historic season, being the only player in league history to average at least 20 points, 9 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 blocks, and 1 steal per game. The Sparks bring their own unique statistical profile, ranking 1st in frequency of attacking the rim and quick tempo, while also boasting the 2nd best defense against shots at the rim. Despite being eliminated from playoff contention after a last-minute Seattle Storm win, the Sparks are not without motivation, seeking to secure a .500 season after a challenging year. Kelsey Plum will wrap up her first season with the Sparks, averaging 19.6 points and 5.7 assists, and facing her former team one last time. The Aces are set to face the No. 7 seed Seattle Storm in a first-round best-of-three playoff series starting Sunday.
