What happened: Reigning WNBA MVP A'ja Wilson celebrated the Las Vegas Aces' win alongside team owner Mark Davis and actor Will Ferrell, the league shared. The scene unfolded during 2026 WNBA Commissioner's Cup play in the league's 30th season.
Why it matters: Wilson remains the centerpiece of a Las Vegas team chasing more hardware, and she was just named a Western Conference Player of the Month. The courtside presence of a star like Ferrell underscores the mainstream pull the WNBA continues to build — the same A'ja Wilson who became the first WNBA player with multiple 45-point games remains its biggest draw.
What to watch: Watch whether Las Vegas can carry the momentum deeper into Commissioner's Cup play as Wilson stacks individual honors.
