Personal Experience
I was lucky enough to attend today’s game at Crypto.com Arena, and the energy was unmatched. From the opening whistle, the Aces looked unstoppable. A’ja Wilson was everywhere, and every time she grabbed a rebound, the crowd roared with excitement.

It felt like every shot they took was going in, and with each made three, the crowd’s excitement grew exponentially. The Sparks fought hard, with Dearica Hamby playing with real intensity, but the Aces were just too much today.
