Forever in our heart : Kelsey plum just announced one team as ……read more

The Las Vegas Aces are one of the best teams in the WNBA. In fact, they are on a path similar to the Kansas City Chiefs in the NFL — they want to win a championship for the third year in a row. That is looking like a serious possibility for the Aces as Kelsey Plum and A’ja Wilson continue to play like some of the W’s best players. Plum has an extremely high opinion of her teammate A’ja Wilson

She explained that it is routine to see A’ja Wilson put up 28 points per game and it is no big deal. That alone goes to show how great of a player she is. Excellence is expected from her.

Kelsey Plum went on to suggest that A’ja Wilson should be the “unanimous” WNBA MVP.

“I understand there’s a difference between between MVP and unanimous, just saying,” Plum concluded.

A’ja Wilson and Kelsey Plum led the way in Tuesday night’s decisive victory. Plum put up a season-high 34 points and Wilson came in just shy of a double-double with 28 points and 9 rebounds. The pair accounted for 62 points, just seven shy of the entire Fever team’s points in the game.

This is especially true of Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark. The rookie sensation has visibly struggled against tenacious defenders thus far in her WNBA career. She put up 13 points and 11 assists against the Aces. However, she struggled in the first 20 minutes of the game, going one of seven from the floor, including a zero for four run from three-point range.

Kelsey Plum added that the home fans also contributed to the victory.

“We have tremendous fans, it was an amazing environment and I’m grateful that we got the win,” Kelsey Plum said in the Aces vs. Fever post-game conference.
