Valkyries dethroning the Aces tonight. Hell of a run by Las Vegas, ending here tonight by this dominant Golden State squad. Stoked for this new WNBA Finals matchup! Only bummer is we have to wait a week for it to start.

(1/4) After 8 seasons and hundreds of stories, I'm stepping off the @WashMystics beat. It was entirely my decision, and I'm staying on at @TheIXSports as managing editor and Ivy League beat reporter. Mystics fans, there is an incredible successor lined up (TBA), so don't worry!

A'ja Wilson earns a $60,000 bonus as the 2026 WNBA League MVP. It's her 5th-time winning it (most all-time), and the 3rd consecutive season in which she's earned the honor. Wilson is under contract in Las Vegas for 2 more seasons, at salaries that equal 20% of the league cap.
