Paige Bueckers achieves 20, while A'ja Wilson dominates against wings in the close victory of Aces


The Las Vegas Aces have a swing in the all-star break.

A'ja Wilson and Las Vegas held a late indictment and defeated Paige Bueckers and the Dallas Wings 90-86 in the showdown on Wednesday in College Park Center. The aces improved to 11-11 with their second win in a row, while the 6-17 wings with four defeats tend in the opposite direction.

Wilson was unstoppable and ended with 37 points and 10 rebounds from the field at the 15-von-25 shoot. It was a second double double for the seven-time all-star, and she made the greatest game of competition with one and 1 in the last 30 seconds to extend the lead to four.

Dallas became abbreviated with Dijonai Carrington and was in the comeback mode during most of the game. Bueckers was brilliant in the fourth quarter and completed this comeback from a 20-point deficit on its way to 20 points, eight templates and two steals.

In their first Matchup, the aces held only four points this season with four points, although they did not have Wilson available and instead rely on big games from Jackie Young and Jewell Loyd.

Wilson did not hesitate to compensate for the lost time in the competition on Wednesday, and put 20 points in the first half when she overwhelmed Dallas' front square with a number of postal movements and physicalities. It was a dominant exhibition directly from the gates and was enough to put the visitors in six points with a half, although Young and Loyd were relatively quiet.

As far as the wings are concerned, all eyes were on Bueckers as number 1 of the overall winner and as an all-star starter in their first season. This was particularly right against a experienced squad, which apparently always has realistic championships, which offered the rookie the opportunity to continue to build on its impressive first season.

However, Luisa Geiselsoder took over the early points for the home team with a combination of three -point shooting and tracks down while creating sales on the defensive side.

But every swing from her first half quickly dissolved for the wings in the third quarter.

Wilson continued to make the tone in the inner group, while Bueckers and the home team became ice cold and tried to keep pace. The rookie sometimes forced the problem, but sometimes this is necessary to counter the three -time MVP.

Las Vegas extended his advantage to 20 points that entered the fourth admission, although it was not just a one-person show when Aaliyah Nye used the open space that joined the defense, which collapsed inside and hit several shots from Deep.

It seemed as if the fourth quarter was a formality, but the wings made themselves on their own and reduced the deficit to single -digit digits, with Bueckers hit out of the depth, Haley Jones achieved from the middle part and divided Dimes from Dimes.

The rookie reduced the deficit in the last minute with a runner on track, but Wilson still gave an answer in the crunch time.
