all business looking to continue her record setting scoring season against this guy and Angel Reese who's having her own record set this year lineups between these two teams now Becky Hammond told us that that four outly 11 a.m. local tip here in Chicago which quick math that's about 900 a.m. for the Vegas players Asia Wilson over to Gray and Plum takes the first look a little bit off the mark Kelsey Plum actually swe get the body moving happy belated birthday to yester Ang Wilson it a almost 28 points per game sitting at just the shy of 27 she's been up in that in that [Music] range cardoso soft hands gets the pass can't get the Finish not come down gets a clean block Lindy Allen works it over to Michaela on knocks down the three Connecticut son Vegas opens up 0 for five here to start and Coach weather spoon had things to say about on and how sheas 93 to 85 in the last game before the allar Olympic break 42 to 43 points in the paint per game AC looking for their first field goal and rookies try to do once they turn pro and she has which is now snapped an eight game stretch where she was at least 20 not this year at least Carter drops it offes bance she's working on her body control when she has to finish around the basket and that one good Wilson trying to go to work against ree leaning in Finish Asia Wilson leaks out I was going to say if they can't get that one as their firston on from midrange not there but cardoso pursuing the B had a really Gooding game against conut the last play to it up from that the aces can score and transition this game zero fast break points in their last one versus the Minnesota links the they will see each other one-onone several times here today on look what I found another bucket this team in the middle of the break and it's put Carter on the ball more but she's done a good job of facilitating the teammates making Wilson she get mention the mentor M connection between Wilson and Reese Emily proud you can she's going to talk trash to me I'm going to talk trash to her but at the end of the day it will be all love between the two other mutual respect on and off the court but all here at the first quarter kick out touch pass Asia Wilson thought about that three-pointer to pull it she'll take about the 17 footer instead and that works stretch the floor she knows cardoo doesn't want to come out inside the paint cardoso paint touch spinning off of Stokes off for the aces to begin with it's what you had talked about ice it can't be all Asia for the aces to have success here this [Applause] [Music] year Allen hesitation reaching foul they're going to count the Pucket she's recognizing more when to call her own number when she needs to score the back give Jefferson checking in really impressed with her leadership too involved in that Connecticut Sun tray a look for Alicia Clark not there the Minnesota links 0 for four the aces are from three to begin with Angel Reese well Off the Mark checking in Dana Evans also checking in for the first time for the sky cardoso wanted a foul there thought she got hit as she was shooting the floater Asia Wilson crosses over cardoso score pass Six now to shoot Evans jste takes a peek at the shot Clau the little Runner off the glass too strong she wanted to get the foul call won't get it numbers supporting the sky here's Mariah Jefferson trying to find Reese poked away it'll to two baskets one to two minutes one to two drops from making it rain nice action there off ball screen assist and just four field goals here for the aces to begin with about 90 seconds left to play here in the corter cardoso's in trouble wrapped up by a couple of b a couple of games to the length and what they need to me isim her defense and TIY ha brings that Jefferson had to put it up the shot clock was at one look at she leaves the league in total rebounds per game five here to shoot Onan gets a look and makes good on it confidence how much did Coach weather spoon talk to us about her players playing with confidence and allowing them to be themselves Asia Wilson again here is Tiffany Hayes thinks about it eight to shoot she pulled the trigger from three two here's haes across midc Court Hayes a little shake and bake a pull that's a long two she'll count it up with was inconsistent yeah I mean I think if we're looking at a team who has won backto back Champion I agree with inconsistent but the great thing is you know that they're capable right you know that this Core Group can make it happen as Clark knocks down a much needed three in the conclusive enough in some of the looks that they were getting to change it to a three so that's where we stand here at the beginning of the second quarter Harrison Off the Bench the second quarter today a few family members and friends in attendance for Martin who misses her first good defense there by Chelsea Gray just one-on-one stopping the ball forcing a tough shot and then that's this is what the aces need more of of the games for more on these games you can go to wnba.com or visit the WNBA app Jefferson in and out one of her goals is to come back healthier she missed the first 12 games games of the season and Happ it on the FL mid postentry pass to Harrison yeah there's got to be more off ball movement once the ball goes into the post good take by Harrison better deep in leadership just you know understanding how to talk how to direct bring this younger team with her they're looking to post up PanAm once again though and she's picked up Miss Heron when she was out with a foot injury the first 12 games of the Season Paramount plus with Showtime plan only it's gr s he is though intercepting a pass they had to sit on that loss for about a month's time Clark is are right back to Grace spinning off the defender can't get it Clark such a good Defender gray has it looks it off to Wilson beautifully done beautifully executed threp it's not an easy thing to do yeah one teams get better right they Scout better Kelsey Plum told us that teams have adjusted to them they're playing the fact that they this team did not start to season all healthy Chelsea Gray was missing due to an injury they were that their main point guard so they've had to go through a lot of different Str one of the best drivers and penetrators in the we Kennedy Carter loon against Reese spins it pops [Applause] out single digits on the shot clock Carter calls tough shot nice little Fade Away beautiful shot she can heat up in a second here for the sky has proven that she can do that chases it down Carter hesitation looks to split the defense a hard foul you know with Kennedy Carter at the foul line it is important to know League calls it but essentially four flagrant points so four flagrant prior to or after that game that she commits a a possible fifth flagrant [Music] one so cannot stress enough about how competitive and how physical the WNBA has always been from year one absolutely Jackie young has been very quiet here in the first half good defense by here's Carter thinking about taking Wilson off the bounch over to Diamond to Shields in and out Jackie Young no points in the first half for the Aces and and a corner shot it's another long Clark PS up in the lane I'm sorry l Wilson again three shoulder Shake can't K the AC's field goal attempts at 36 Reese with another bucket and great job by Reese to go up quickly in different spaces again because you cannot rely on just Asia to score and rebound and do everything and I thought tip Hayes has brought in some Hayes by the way came out of retirement to play with the aces in this roster and try to win a championship here this year banam loses it team traffic with Plum and young and Clark in the back court Plum will take it good aggression there offensively that for the aces Pano quick pull and she can be ambidextrious Rebound with both hands Carter gets a look catch and fire here in the second quarter Kennedy Carter said my mindset for the second half of the Season I'm not playing around anymore Kelsey P isn't playing around either on the outside yeah Carter had a focus pregame our conversation with us gets wrapped up a little bit Hayes defensive 30 to 28 Plum up against Allen over to gray three-pointer on the way not there Point territory inside a minute here in the first half Carter to he blocked by and then does it Clark with the rebound grce surveying her options whips the pass the Wilson who whips pass the whole defense one of the best penetrators in the league gives it up Corner shot Allen with three on the shot clock High aring shot over to midcourt gray PO on the way not there been entertaining here in this first half three lead changes a couple of ties and the Aces and
