A’ja Wilson getting prepped for Game 3 💥 Aces look to advance to the semifinals of the 2026 WNBA postseason at 9:00pm/e Via @NBA on X

What happened: Las Vegas goes into a winner-take-all Game 3 after the series was pushed to a decider in Game 2. Wilson had 22 points, nine rebounds, three steals and two assists in that outing.

Why it matters: The winner advances to the semifinals, and Las Vegas is trying to keep its bid for a fourth WNBA title in five years alive. Wilson also enters the game after avoiding further discipline from the Game 2 fan confrontation.

By the numbers: The series is 1-1, so Game 3 will decide the round. Las Vegas won WNBA titles in 2022, 2023 and 2025.

What to watch: Watch whether Las Vegas can answer after Indiana forced the decider with a 99-89 Game 2 win. A victory sends the Aces on; a loss ends their season.
