The Connecticut Sun visit the Las Vegas Aces at Michelob ULTRA Arena for one of two WNBA games slated for Wednesday. The Aces have lost five of their last seven games.
They started well, winning four of their first six, but following their best player A’ja Wilson getting sidelined due to concussion protocol in June for three straight games, Las Vegas has fallen to ninth in the standings.
Meanwhile, the Sun have fared worse, winning only two of their first 14 games this season. They have lost six in a row and are last (2-12) in the league, a game behind the Dallas Wings in 12th (4-12).
Wednesday's matchup will be the second Aces-Sun game of the season. The Aces won the their last meeting, 87-62, following a 22-point, 10-rebound outing from reigning MVP A'ja Wilson.
