After winning four games in a row, the Las Vegas Aces are looking for a way to keep their winning ways going. Even though they lost one in a series against the Phoenix Mercury, the Aces still have a winning record under Bill Laimbeer. Here are some things you should know about the Aces. This article will go over some of their recent developments and what they have planned for the future.
Las Vegas Aces win fourth straight game
The Aces are rolling in the NBA G League and sit in first place in the Western Conference with a record of 12-4. They have won eight out of ten of their last ten matches and lead the league with a 91.8 PPG and a +11.2 point differential. Fans are calling the Aces a team to be on the lookout for this summer.
Chelsea Gray and the Aces are on a historic playoff run. This game saw her continue her impressive play, scoring 31 point, six rebounds, ten assists, and the team winning. She became the first player ever to record a 30-point game with 10 assists in WNBA playoffs.

The Aces' offense exploded in the second half. Washington won the game by 83 to 73. A'ja made her first four shots and Kelsey Plum extended the streak of consecutive three points to 38 games.
Phoenix Mercury: Loses only game in series
Mercury are dealing with a variety of injuries and inconsistencies to their roster. The team is without Brittney Griner, who has been in jail in Russia since February. Skylar Diggins Smith, who separated from the team in June due to personal reasons, is not with the team. Shey Petty, who had a ruptured right achilles tendon, was another injury.
Mercury had a tough start to the year, losing five of their first seven matches. This meant that the Mercury experienced a low production and took Lisa Nygaard some time to adjust. However, the team won three consecutive wins and the chemistry has improved.
The Mercury have shown improvement in their defensive play and have had to make a lot of fourth-quarter turnovers. They are forcing their opponents to play at an unnatural pace. They switched from a man–to-man defense to an open two-three zone in the final minutes of the game.

Have winning record under new coach Bill Laimbeer
The Las Vegas Aces have a strong start to their inaugural season. They have a winning record at 6-3 and have more career wins than former head coach Brian Agler. Laimbeer, a former NBA All-Star and NBA champion, is now a four-time NBA All-Star. He was also the leader of the WNBA's Detroit Shock team to three championships.
Bill Laimbeer was a former NBA general manager and coach. Before taking over the Phoenix Suns, he guided the Detroit Shock to three straight 20-win seasons. His final record was 92-78. He won WNBA Coaches Award of the Year 2015.
Hammon took over as Laimbeer's coach. He introduced a read-heavy offensive strategy and a lot of 3-pointers. Laimbeer was known for his offense that focused on getting the ball to the basket. Hammon's redesign of the offense led to an amazing start to the season. After their first 10 games, the Aces were 9-1 under Hammon. Hammon's.722 average winning percentage during regular season is third in franchise history. He was also the WNBA’s 2022 All-Star Game coaches.
