The Las Vegas Aces dropped a narrow game 83-81 to the Golden State Valkyries on Oct. 9 in a WNBA semifinal, with the series far from over. Guard Jackie Young drew attention for her efforts as she worked to help the Aces get back in the game, according to ESPN coverage.
A'ja Wilson broke a long-standing record during the game, surpassing Diana Taurasi's WNBA playoff scoring record and creating a separate moment of note. The Aces now are under pressure to even the series after the narrow defeat. Both teams head into the next game with plenty at stake.
