Aces bounce back from Game 1 loss

A'ja Wilson bounced back from a rare off-game with 25 points and nine rebounds. The Las Vegas Aces evened their WNBA semifinals playoff series with a convincing 90-68 Game 2 victory over the Indiana Fever on Tuesday night.

The best-of-five series heads to Indianapolis, where Game 3 will be played Friday night.

Wilson made 10 of 18 shots to finish   with a playoff career-high five steals, two nights after the four-time MVP made just 6 of 22 field goals. NaLyssa Smith added 18 points on 7-of-9 shooting and Jackie Young scored 13, and Jewell Loyd and Dana Evans each had 10 points. Chelsea Gray finished with 10 assists.

Odyssey Sims led the Fever with 18 points and Lexie Hull, who was questionable with a back injury and wearing a brace on the bench, scored 15. Kelsey Mitchell had 13 points and Aliyah Boston 10.

Mitchell scored 34 points in Game 1 as the Fever won an 89-73 victory but was held to 4-of-14 shooting Tuesday.
