Key Storylines
Jackie Young Leading the Charge
In Friday’s 88–84 win over Dallas, Jackie Young dropped 28 points, including an 8–8 free‑throw finish.
Aces’ Recent Offensive Dip
Despite strong shooting, Aces dropped their previous game to Seattle 95–68, with poor effort from key guards; coach Becky Hammon called it a “layup drill” defense.
Key Injuries
Mercury missing two guards: Kahleah Copper (knee) and Megan McConnell (knee).
Aces without their center depth: A’ja Wilson is out (concussion protocol) and Megan Gustafson (leg) remains sidelined.
X‑Factors
Bench Battle: Phoenix’s rotation thin with guard injuries; Las Vegas depth tested without bigs.
Free-Throws & Clutch Plays: Young’s 28-point performance came with perfect foul shooting down the stretch.
Pace & Defense: Phoenix plays faster and pushes tempo; Las Vegas’s effort will define transition success.
Mercury vs. Aces Prediction
Jackie Young’s second-half dominance: Can she stay aggressive? Will Las Vegas control the boards sans their starters? Mercury ball security: Injuries may lead to turnovers—opportunity for the Aces.
Without Wilson/Gustafson, Aces lack size but boast momentum from Young’s hot hand. Mercury are solid, but their guard depth is strained. Expect a battle of runs, with Las Vegas controlling closing stretches at home.
Home-court edge and clutch play push Las Vegas over the line.
Mercury vs. Aces Prediction: LAS VEGAS ACES +5
