Las Vegas Aces vs Chicago Sky Prediction: Can the Sky halt the surging Aces?

Las Vegas Aces vs Chicago Sky Prediction: The Las Vegas Aces will start as home favorites to win their upcoming game against the Chicago Sky as per the latest predictions.

A gripping encounter awaits as the Las Vegas Aces are set to host the Chicago Sky in their next WNBA fixture tonight. The Aces have already sent a strong message across both conferences through their ruthless performance so far. They got a scare in the last game against the Lynx who put up a brave fight. Las Vegas bounced back from a 14-point deficit in the final minutes to go past the opposition, thanks to Dearica Hamby’s 3-pointer that gave them the lead.

They got a narrow victory by just 1 point in the end. A’ja Wilson and Kelsey Plum turned out to be the top performers as they added 46 points and 12 rebounds together. The Aces will aim for their fifth straight win in the upcoming contest against the Sky.

The Chicago Sky was looking good to move closer to the top spot in the Eastern Conference. But a defeat in the last game against the Fever has snatched the momentum from them. They will have a tough challenge against the Aces on their next road trip. Kahleah Cooper was the leading scorer in the last game as she scored 28 points with 4 rebounds.

However, she lacked support from the other players and Chicago faced a disheartening loss by 2 points. The Sky needs a complete effort in the next game tonight.
