LAS VEGAS — It was a different game but the same old story between the Sky and the Aces on Thursday night. Like in their three previous matchups this season, the Sky found themselves on their heels.

With the No. 1 playoff seed on the line, the Sky floundered, falling to the Aces 89-78 and dropping to second in the WNBA standings.
