The Las Vegas Aces won their fourth consecutive game on Saturday with an 88–77 victory over the Washington Mystics. However, a WNBA-record streak came to an end during the win.
A’ja Wilson scored a season-low 11 points, which broke her streak of consecutive 20-point games. She came into Saturday’s game having scored 20 or more in 20 straight contests, dating back to last season. The previous record for consecutive 20-point games was 13, set by the Phoenix Mercury’s Diana Taurasi between the 2006 and 2007 seasons.
Wilson’s streak goes back to last season — Aug. 28, 2023 vs. the New York Liberty, to be exact — and the final five games of the 2023 schedule. She scored 20 points or more in all 15 of the Aces’ previous games this year.
The streak included eight 30-point efforts, with Wilson twice scoring 36 (last Sept. 10 vs. Phoenix and on June 5 against Dallas).
