The Las Vegas Aces have made a significant front office change by firing general manager Natalie Williams following their semifinals loss to the New York Liberty. Williams, who was hired in 2022 as part of a new regime that led the Aces to back-to-back championships in 2022 and 2023, will not have her contract renewed as part of a front office restructuring.
Williams, a former WNBA player and Olympic gold medalist, played a key role in the Aces' success over the past two seasons. However, her tenure was marred by controversy, including a lawsuit from former player Dearica Hamby and a league-directed investigation into potential salary-cap circumvention.
