LAS VEGAS–The Aces bounced back from a tough loss on Tuesday to the Atlanta Dream with a 90-77 win over the Indiana Fever at Michelob Ultra Arena.

Las Vegas came out fast, building a 52-32 halftime lead and overcoming a rough fourth quarter, scoring just 14 points.

“They came back a little bit, but overall, a really good win from us,” said head coach Becky Hammon.

The Aces were led by A’ja Wilson’s 23 points, while Jackie Young added 16.

“I felt like my teammates set me up to where I can score the ball,” said Wilson.

Chelsea Gray had a double-double, scoring 14 points and dishing out 12 assists.

“That’s who she [Gray] is, that is Chelsea Gray, she is the head of our snake,” said Wilson. “When she is rockin’ and rollin’, we are rockin’ and rollin’.”

“When we are playing in transition, that’s when we are flowing,” said Gray.

The win snapped a 4-game losing streak for the Aces at home.

With the win, the Aces improved to 19-8 on the season and will play the final game of a three game homestand on Saturday against the Los Angeles Sparks.
