The Minnesota Lynx (32–8) visit the Las Vegas Aces (26–14) tonight at T-Mobile Arena in a late-season battle between the league’s most dominant team and its hottest. It’s also a showdown between two MVP candidates: Napheesa Collier and A’ja Wilson, who was just named August’s Player of the Month.

Collier comes into tonight averaging 23.5 points per game. Wilson is just behind with 23.4, but also adds 10.1 rebounds per game.

The Lynx have been in a class of their own all year, holding a 5.5-game lead over the second-place Atlanta Dream. But the Aces have caught fire since August, riding a 12-game winning streak into tonight.

The question now: are they ready to challenge the Lynx, or are they simply the best of the rest? This game offers a preview of how far Las Vegas can go in the playoffs — and whether they can contend for the title.

Minnesota leads the season series 3–0, winning by an average margin of 33 points. Their last meeting was a 111–58 demolition that exposed the Aces on both ends of the floor. That blowout, though, lit a fire under Las Vegas. Sitting at 14–14 after the loss, the Aces haven’t dropped a game since — and now stand 12 games over .500.

Now, with just a handful of games in the regular season left, the Aces face a test drive of whether they’re ready for the big dance.

Prediction

Expect a playoff-level battle, with Minnesota’s depth edging out Las Vegas’s momentum in a close finish.

Prediction: Minnesota Lynx 90, Las Vegas Aces 85
