The Aces gathered outside T-Mobile Arena on Friday to celebrate their third WNBA title in four years with another parade, as “pink wigs and tambourines stretched along Toshiba Plaza” and “thousands of fans stretched along Park Avenue.” Aces G Jewell Loyd, who won her third WNBA title after winning two with the Storm, said, “Now this is a parade. I been to some other ones, but this one? This one hits a little different.” The Aces “walked a red carpet after being unloaded from double-decker buses with ‘2025 World Champions’ decals wrapped around them.” Aces C A’ja Wilson, G Jackie Young and G Chelsea Gray “exited the final bus with each player holding one of the Aces’ three championship trophies.” Hip-hop group Crime Mob “performed a four-song set,” which included the Aces’ warmup song, “Knuck If You Buck.” R&B artist Mya “took the stage for a longer set list,” followed by hip-hop artist Ludacris. A video played of “WNBA pundits and reporters saying the Aces’ run of dominance was over.” Coach Becky Hammon said, “This never gets old. We should do it again next year. Same time, next year. Let’s do this” (LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL, 10/17).
In Las Vegas, Adam Hill wrote under the header: “There’s no debate. Aces are greatest dynasty in WNBA history,” noting the Aces’ three titles in four years are superior to the Comets’ four in a row and the Lynx’s run of four titles in seven years and six finals appearances. Hill: “Please stop. It’s settled” (LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL, 10/18).
An official estimated attendance was not immediately released, but posts on social media showed thousands on hand (X, 10/17).
