LAS VEGAS — A’ja Wilson, the WNBA’s reigning MVP, agreed to a contract extension with the Aces Friday, tying her to the team for two more seasons.
“When the Aces made me their first-ever draft pick, they entrusted me with a lot,” Wilson said in a press release. “I’m happy to still be in Las Vegas, winning games, playing at a high level, but also being a part of a community that has embraced me and my teammates over the past six years, and made this city a second home for me.”
Wilson was the MVP, defensive player of the year and guided the team to the first WNBA championship in franchise history during the 2022 season.
