Last Sunday, Wilson scored 29 points for the Las Vegas Aces in an 84-71 victory over the Connecticut Suns, with her record-breaking 1,000th point coming in the final minutes of the fourth quarter. “I had the honor of witnessing A’ja make history last Sunday against the Connecticut Suns, where her signature fade-away mid-range jumper landed her in the history books once again,” said Congresswoman Susie Lee in her remarks. “A’ja and the rest of her back-to-back World Championship Vegas Aces are well-known for breaking records. But this one felt particularly special. Thank you to A’ja and everyone in the Vegas Aces family for making your city proud. “We look forward to cheering you all on as the Aces get one step closer to going back-to-back-to-back this year.” Lee’s full remarks can be found on Twitter HERE. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T21:43:57Z |
