The Aces wanted experience, and that's what they have in Tiffany Hayes. She announced her retirement after playing with the Connecticut Sun last season. It was her 11th in the league.

The #USABWNT , featuring four Aces, just beat Germany 84-57 in their final friendly before the Olympics. A’ja Wilson led USA with 19 points and 14 rebounds. She said it wasn’t time to hit the panic button after Team USA’s loss to Team WNBA on Saturday ⬇️

So the Aces are delayed at the airport en route to South Carolina for their preseason game. They just watched the president leave in his helicopter after they were celebrated at the White House. The moment was quickly followed by the WNBA’s official charter flight announcement.

Programming note: I’m not covering the Aces vs. Connecticut Sun game tonight. Wednesday night, I traveled to Charlotte so that I could speak on a great panel this morning about diversity in media. Super excited to get back to Las Vegas when this conference wraps up!

A’ja knows the Aces still have a target on their backs this season. “Something about us, people just want to beat us,” she said. “I’m pretty sure a lot of people think that we’re arrogant.”

Lol what a day for A’ja Wilson and the Aces. This, after the news that 19 of their 20 home games AND their road matchup with the Dallas Wings are sold out.

When I spoke with Dearica Hamby, she told me she’d be spending her Mother’s Day on the court — 9 weeks after welcoming Legend. Initially wanting to prove the Aces wrong, her motivation evolved. On competitive drive, advocacy and family for @YahooSports :

Wilson is the 1st player in WNBA history with 25+ PTS, 15+ REB, 5+ BLK, and 3+ 3PM in a game. Still a quarter to go.

There were no players listed on the Aces’ injury report for tomorrow at the Atlanta Dream! Which means Megan Gustafson is likely back from being sick.

“I was anxious all day,” Chelsea Gray said postgame. “But the fans, they were amazing…It was great, and just a rush and a feeling that I missed a lot.” Takeaways from the Aces’ 94-83 win over the Seattle Storm and the Point Gawd’s return ⬇️

Some quick notes on the Aces’ 1st road trip ahead of Aces @ Lynx tonight. Down to 9 healthy players, I was told the team will be looking to sign someone soon. Also added what I could confirm on Chelsea Gray and Kierstan Bell’s injuries ⬇️

The officials tonight (Gina Cross, Maj Forsberg, Isaac Barnett), have drawn boos throughout this entire fourth quarter. "Refs you suck" chants were overwhelming while Jonquel Jones was at the free throw line.

FWIW: Becky Hammon said Kate Martin would start if Jackie Young couldn’t play vs. the Wings. Wouldn’t be surprised if that’s the case tomorrow in LA.
