Las Vegas Aces Preview
The Aces rolled in Game 1 with strong shooting and good ball movement. They made 51% of their shots and almost half of their threes while turning the ball over just 9 times. A’ja Wilson led the way with 29 points, 8 rebounds, and 2 blocks. Jackie Young added 18 points on 6-of-9 shooting with 4 threes and 7 assists.
Las Vegas had 23 assists and forced 12 turnovers, which turned into fast-break points. The Aces have now won 17 games in a row, and each of the last five by double figures. Their inside scoring from Wilson, plus outside shooting from Young and others, makes them tough to guard. If they keep moving the ball and pressuring on defense, the Aces should sweep the series.
Seattle Storm Preview
Seattle had some good efforts but struggled to slow the Aces. Gabby Williams scored 16 points on 8-of-13 shooting. Nneka Ogwumike had 11 points with 8 rebounds, and Dominique Malonga added 12 points and 11 rebounds. Even with those numbers, the Storm allowed 102 points and gave up too many open threes.

To compete in Game 2, Seattle needs tighter defense at the three-point line and fewer mistakes. They went 8-for-11 on free throws while Las Vegas went 16-for-21. Cleaner play from the guards and more balance on offense are key if they want to push this series further. However, against the hottest team in the WNBA, that will not be an easy task.
Las Vegas vs Seattle Prediction
The Aces (-5.5) look like the better team. Wilson dominates inside, and the team’s outside shooting is hard to match. Game 1 went well over the total at 179 points, and both teams play at a fast pace, so scoring should stay high. Final Score Prediction: Las Vegas Aces win and cover ATS 93-85
