The Fever won the regular-season series against the Aces 2-1, but it didn't look that way in Sunday's playoff matchup. Indiana's largest lead was just two points, and the team failed to go in front again after leading 16-14 in the first quarter.

For Las Vegas, it was the Wilson Show, as the 30-year-old showcased her elite scoring and rebounding skills throughout the game as she punished Indiana on both ends of the floor.

In addition to Wilson's strong performance, the Aces got a 21-point, 10-assist double-double from star guard Jackie Young. Veteran floor general Chelsea Gray also added 14 points and eight assists in the victory.

Wilson and the Aces will try to close out the best-of-three series against the Fever on the road in Tuesday's Game 2.
