Jackie Young also had an outstanding performance, achieving her second triple-double of the season with 10 points, 10 assists, and 11 rebounds.\n\nThe Aces join a select group of WNBA teams, being the tenth to achieve at least a dozen consecutive wins in a season.\n\nAces coach Becky Hammon highlighted the team&#8217;s evolution, which previously struggled to maintain a .500 record. &#8220;They&#8217;re making their presence felt,&#8221; Hammon stated.\n\nWilson has reached 11 games with 30 or more points this season, matching his personal best from last year, when he was awarded his third MVP award.\n\nWilson also set a new WNBA record, with the most games in a season with 30 or more points, with 60% or more field goal shooting efficiency. This was her sixth such game, surpassing Cynthia Cooper.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>I try to make my workouts and practices very similar to the games, so that it&#8217;s familiar. I can figure out how to get to my spots and be productive for my team. That comes from understanding who I am and where I want to go.<\/p><cite>A&#8217;ja Wilson<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F0828%2Fr1537737_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"A&#039;ja Wilson\" title=\"\"><figcaption>A&#8217;ja Wilson tuvo su und\u00e9cimo partido de 30 puntos de la temporada, terminando con 34 en la victoria del mi\u00e9rcoles por la noche sobre las Dream.

Cox\/Getty Images<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\nWilson demonstrated his versatility by making 13 of 21 field goals, including two three-pointers that were crucial in changing the course of the game.\n\nAfter the game, Wilson joked, saying: &#8220;Don&#8217;t call me Curry&#8221;, referring to the legendary NBA player Stephen Curry. Wilson&#8217;s three-pointers were key to the Aces taking the lead.\n\nThe Aces managed to withstand the Dream&#8217;s comeback attempt in the final quarter, with Loyd and Chelsea Gray hitting decisive three-pointers in the final minute.\n\nWith a 26-14 record this season, the Aces have performed exceptionally since the All-Star break, with a 15-3 record. They have four games remaining in the regular season, including three at home, and will not play again until September 4th.\n\nCoach Hammon expressed her concern about the team&#8217;s fatigue due to the tight schedule. &#8220;When you talk about gears and the ability to shift into an extra gear, we&#8217;ve really been able to do that on the defensive side. And it&#8217;s winning us games. Really one of our quality team wins tonight: proof of courage, resilience, toughness,&#8221; Hammon stated.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Las Vegas Aces Sets Record and Rises in the WNBA Las Vegas Aces demonstrated their power by defeating the Atlanta Dream with a score of 81-75 on Wednesday, matching a franchise record with their twelfth consecutive victory and climbing positions in the WNBA standings.
