The Las Vegas Aces and Phoenix Mercury will play the decisive Game 3 of the 2025 WNBA Finals at the Mortgage Matchup Center on Wednesday. After winning the first game 89-86 and the second game 91-78, the Aces now have a 2-0 lead in the best-of-five series.
After a dominating 13-point victory in Game 2 on Sunday, the Aces increased their series victory. MVP A’ja Wilson led Las Vegas to victory once more, scoring 20 points in the first half and finished with a game-high 28 points and 14 rebounds. Jackie Young, who scored 32 points and pulled down eight rebounds, also played a big part in the win.
Kahleah Copper led the Mercury in scoring with 23 points despite the defeat, and Satou Sabally put up 22 points and pulled down nine rebounds, but their efforts were insufficient.
