LAS VEGAS ACES VS. DALLAS WINGS PLAYER PROPS — AUG. 27, 2024 — Greetings, basketball fans. Welcome back to our WNBA coverage here at Total Apex Sports. One of the games on tap from today’s slate features the Las Vegas Aces squaring off against the Dallas Wings.
The Dallas Wings have the second-worst record in the league. Following the midseason break, the Wings dropped three straight games before pulling out a 113-110 win over the Los Angeles Sparks — a game they trailed by 19 points heading into the final frame.
Meanwhile, the Las Vegas Aces have been a mixed bag at best, going 2-3 in their last five games following the Olympic break. They enter this tilt on the heels of a two-point win over the Chicago Sky on Sunday. After Chicago rallied from 13 points down to tie the game at 75, A’ja Wilson hit the game-winning layup as time expired.
