The Las Vegas Aces Win the 2025 WNBA Championship in a Clean Sweep over the Mercury
The Las Vegas Aces are WNBA Champions! The road has been something out of a Disney movie. It is truly amazing what this team has managed to overcome to become the champions. They went from a .500 team, hanging in the balance, to become the world champions. The game is not over until it's over and the Aces proved that from August on forward. From A'ja Wilson to Jackie Young, Chelsea Gray, and Jewell Loyd, the team bathes in success.
The Aces rang in the 97-86 victory with waves of happiness. The game came in common fashion where Wilson led the way with 31 Points on top of 9 Rebounds. In support, Young had 18 Points and 7 Rebounds. Gray had 18 Points, 4 Rebounds, and 4 Assists. Loyd has come on as the certified fourth player in this dominant top-end. She had 12 Points in the championship victory.
On the Mercury side, Alyssa Thomas did play a great game with a triple-double on 17 Points, 12 Rebounds, and 10 Assists. Kahleah Copper also broke out in a massive effort for 30 Points of her own. The Mercury did not go down without a fight, but they were ultimately knocked out.
This team has been something out of a fairytale. As we are repeated on saying, the Aces were 14-14 on August 2nd following a record 53-Point defeat to the Minnesota Lynx. This was a test and the Aces went on the "ace" it going forward. From that point on, the Aces did not lose another single game until the season came to an end.
