Player to watch out for: Jackie Young
Las Vegas Aces F/G Jackie Young has been one of the more lethal threats with her scoring and playmaking.
She's the third-leading scorer (18.9 points per game) for Vegas behind A'ja Wilson (27.0 points) and Kelsey Plum (19.2 points). Young leads the Aces in assists (5.7), with Chelsea Gray coming in second with 4.4 dimes per contest.
Young has been a vital cog in the defending champs' offense. She's known for her shot creation and shot-making abilities that add more teeth to a team that already has the top offensive rating this season.
Come Wednesday, all eyes will be on her facilitating as the Aces look to break down Seattle's stern defense, which has been a legitimate threat for most teams this edition.
