A'ja Wilson achieved her 19th double-double this season with 36 points and 13 rebounds, helping the Aces win their longest WNBA streak since 2021, now third in standings.
- On Saturday in Washington, the Las Vegas Aces defeated the Washington Mystics 91-81 to extend their winning streak to 10 games.
