The Las Vegas Aces, powered by 31 points from A¡¯ja Wilson, captured their third title in four seasons on Friday, beating the Phoenix Mercury 97-86 to complete a sweep of the WNBA Finals.
Wilson went 7-of-21 from the floor but 17-of-19 from the free throw line and added nine rebounds, four assists, three blocked shots and two steals as the visiting Aces took the best-of-seven championship series 4-0.
¡°We understood the assignment and what was in front of us,¡± Wilson said. ¡°All we had to do was believe in one another and you see that. We¡¯re grateful. We¡¯re blessed. I wouldn¡¯t do it with any other group.¡±
