A’ja Wilson has signed a two-year contract extension with the Las Vegas Aces. The two-time WNBA MVP was the driving force in the Aces’ run to their first title last season. sabreenajm and benpickman discuss the move's impact:
were all already under contract for the 2024 season. The only potential variable heading into this offseason was if Wilson chose to test the waters as an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and now Las Vegas is also retaining the two-time MVP and reigning Defensive Player of the Year without even having to use the core provision. Wilson has only ever suited up for the Aces, as have Plum and Young, and they will be sharing their court together for their sixth consecutive season next year.
“We’re excited to have A’ja in an Aces uniform for the next two years,” said Hammon. “Her body of work speaks for itself—her impact on the game, on the community of Las Vegas and with her teammates. Everybody who is around her knows how special she is, and it is great to have her remain in the fold.”
“When the Aces made me their first-ever draft pic16k, they entrusted me with a lot,” said Wilson. “I’m happy to still be in Las Vegas, winning games, playing at a high level, but also being a part of a community that has embraced me and my teammates over the past six years, and made this city a second home for me.”
