New Home. Higher Standard. Bigger Impact. 🤩 Mark Davis purchased the Aces in 2021 and built the first-of-its-kind WNBA Via @LVAces on X

What happened: The WNBA approved Davis' purchase of Las Vegas from MGM Resorts International on Jan. 12, 2021. The club later became the first league franchise to occupy a complex built solely for a WNBA team.

Why it matters: The project put practice courts, basketball operations and player services under one roof. That model raised expectations for dedicated team infrastructure across the league.

By the numbers: $40 million reported cost; 64,000 square feet; two full-size practice courts.

What to watch: Watch how Las Vegas uses the facility in player development and recruitment as other teams invest in their own complexes.
