On September 7, the WNBA continued with a match between the Sun and the Aces, which saw the Aces complete a comeback with an outstanding performance in the final moments of the fourth quarter, defeating the Sun 72-67.
The Aces were soon taken out of their rhythm after the game started, especially in the second quarter when the entire team only managed to score 9 points. The first half was intense, with the Aces struggling against the Sun’s top-ranked defense in the league. Plum, who went 5 for 8 from the field and scored 16 points, was the only player on either team to score in double digits in the first half.
In the second half, the Aces continued to catch up, with Plum remaining the key scorer for the team. Plum finished the game with a game-high 27 points, shooting 8 for 15, including 3 of 8 from three-point range and making all 8 free throws.
The Aces’ comeback also hinged on Wilson’s timely resurgence. Wilson only scored 5 points on 2-for-7 shooting in the first half but gradually regained her form in the second half, scoring 15 points on 6-for-8 shooting. Her drives to the basket in the final moments left the Sun helpless and led to the comeback.
Wilson contributed 20 points on 8-for-15 shooting in the entire game, along with 8 rebounds, 2 steals, and 2 blocks, and made 4 of 6 free throws.
