The Las Vegas Aces are in the WNBA playoff finals for the fourth time, facing off against the formidable Phoenix Mercury. The Aces have won two of their previous finals runs, and so far this time, they’ve gone two-for-two in the best-of-seven series.
A near-record-breaking win streak qualified the Aces for the playoffs. And they had nail-biting wins against the Storm and Fever in rounds 1 and 2. The Mercury, likewise, have had to fight tooth-and-nail to make it to the playoffs, making this final an exciting one to both cover and watch.
Las Vegas Review-Journal reporter Callie Fin has been there all season. She says this season has been remarkable for its comebacks and surprises.
The Aces won Game one 89-86, and Game two, 91-78. Game three is tonight at 5 p.m. in Phoenix and on ESPN.
