The battle of the super teams at the start of the WNBA Finals looks a bit lopsided. The Las Vegas Aces picked up two dominant wins against the New York Liberty to open the series. With a win in Game 3 on Sunday, the Aces could take home their second straight title.
The Aces’ star power has overwhelmed the Liberty so far. A’ja Wilson dropped 26 points in the team’s 104-76 win in Game 2. Kelsey Plum added 23 points and Jackie Young had another good performance dropping 24 points. Young also played a key role in the Aces’ Game 1 win, scoring 26 points for the Liberty.
Meanwhile, Liberty is still searching for answers. Jonquel Jones was the only player on the team to score at least 20 points in Game 2. She finished the game with 22. Jones was really the only standout on offense as the team shot 36.1% from the field. The Liberty made 46.4% of their field goal attempts during the team’s Game 1 loss. The rest of the offense needs to find its rhythm if the Liberty want to make this a competitive series.
Game 3 tipoff takes place Sunday at 3 p.m. ET on ABC at Barclays Center in New York. If necessary, Game 4 will take place on Wednesday.
