Key Storylines
- A’ja Wilson’s dominance: Wilson scored 34 points and grabbed 14 rebounds in Game 3. She hit the game-winner with 0.3 seconds left in that game to give her team a 3-0 lead. Phoenix has repeatedly failed to find an effective countermeasure to slow down Wilson.
- Elimination pressure on Phoenix: The Mercury are in must-win mode for the rest of this series. Veterans like DeWanna Bonner, Kahleah Copper, and Alyssa Thomas must elevate their games if Phoenix wants to keep its title hopes alive.
- Depth and role players: Las Vegas’s bench contributions from Jewell Loyd and Dana Evans have been more consistent than Phoenix’s bench production. That depth has made a huge difference throughout this series.
- Adjustment battle: Phoenix needs to alter how it defends Wilson and limit her touches. But if they haven’t been able to do that yet in this series, they might not be able to here.
- WNBA history: No team has ever come back from a 3-0 deficit to win a best-of-seven series in the WNBA. At the same time, no team has ever closed out a series while up 3-0. That is because this is the first time there has been a best-of-seven WNBA Finals.

Final Thoughts
The Aces have all of the momentum in this series heading into Game 4. They also have the best player on the planet in women’s basketball right now, as A’ja Wilson is making a compelling case to be the GOAT once her career is done. But I think the Phoenix Mercury will find a way to grab a win in this series to avoid being swept. This series will go back to Las Vegas, where the Aces will likely finish the job in Game 5, as the Mercury will win as slight underdogs on Friday night.
