What else can you say about Aja Wilson. From the start to the season to now, Wilson has been the most consistent player on her team. When you need a bucket, call on A.W and she will put her Wonder Woman cape on and save the day. After blowing a double-digit lead in the second half and allowing Seattle to get back in the game, Wilson went to work. She was demanding the ball and Seattle had no answer with stopping her.


Down by one with under two minutes left, Wilson hit an elbow shot that rolled in and helped the Aces capture the lead. Erica Wheeler hit a mid-range jumper to put the Storm up one with .45 ticks left in regulation. Wilson hit a tough lay-up to put her team up one. With one last gasp of breath, Seattle had the chance to win the game. They had a wide-open shot and missed it. The ball bounced around and Jackie Young secured the ball to help her team escape the upset. The Aces will advance to the semifinals.
