A'ja Wilson and the Las Vegas Aces are navigating a challenging season, marked by inconsistency in their performance. At .500, the team has shown both impressive wins and frustrating losses. Wilson emphasizes her role as a leader to help her teammates during unfamiliar circumstances. Coach Becky Hammon expresses her concerns about the team's ability to maintain consistent performance and desires a return to fundamental basketball. Recent changes, including a trade for NaLyssa Smith, aim to bolster the team's performances going forward with an upcoming challenging schedule.
As A'ja Wilson states, 'That's when I have to be not just be the vocal leader, but I have to show it. I have to remain calm so my teammates can understand that we're good, even though the situation's very unfamiliar to me. I take this as a big learning season for all of us.'
Coach Becky Hammon expressed her frustration, saying, 'My frustration has been seeing greatness in moments and seeing absolute disasters in moments. And how there's kind of no in-between. I just want solid, basic basketball: screen, box out. Things they've been hearing their whole lives.'
