The Las Vegas Aces (2-2) are back on home turf at Michelob ULTRA Arena this Friday night, set to lock horns with the Los Angeles Sparks (2-4).
The Aces are looking to bounce back after a rough road trip to Seattle, where they were handed a 102-82 defeat by the Storm last Sunday.
Meanwhile, the Sparks are also licking their wounds following an 88-82 loss to Atlanta, which dropped them to 2-4 to start their 2025 campaign.
Historically, it's been a tight rivalry. The Aces trail the all-time series 47-56, though they hold a solid 29-22 record at home against L.A. The two teams split their meetings last season, but Las Vegas had the last laugh in August 2024, thanks to A’ja Wilson’s dominant 34-point, 13-rebound performance, with Jackie Young adding 10 points of her own.
This clash marks the first of four showdowns between the two sides this year, with the next meeting coming up on June 11, again in Vegas.
