What's next for the Las Vegas Aces and Seattle Storm?

Las Vegas plays its final regular season game on Thursday against the Dallas Wings. The Aces will be the favorites to win that matchup since the Wings are one of the worst teams in the league. They need to win that game and hope the Connecticut Sun lose to the Chicago Sky to steal the No. 3 seed.

Meanwhile, the Seattle Storm will face the Phoenix Mercury in their season finale on the same day. The Storm have already secured their spot in the playoffs as the fifth seed and could rest their players given that two of their best players are nursing injuries.
