The Las Vegas Aces have now lost four of their last five games and have fallen to 6-6 on the season. After Saturday's loss to the New York Liberty, Aces star A'ja Wilson got emotional, saying she's determined to get the team back to the top of the WNBA.
Winning in the WNBA is an incredibly difficult task, even for a team that has won each of the last two league titles. The Las Vegas Aces have struggled early in the 2024 season and star A'ja Wilson is putting a lot of it on her shoulders.
After the game, Wilson was emotional. Even though she's averaging an impressive 28.0 points, 11.5 rebounds, 2.5 blocks and 1.7 steals per game, she knows she can do more from a leadership standpoint. "So, when it comes to wins, losses, when I tell you I break this game down piece by piece. I don't want to be great for you guys, no offense, but I wanna be great for my team. I wanna be great for this franchise. It is hard as shit. It is hard as shit. Because there are tons of people that want to break you down, great teams in this league that are gonna try and come after you every single night.
