This May, the newly minted Las Vegas Aces will bring professional basketball to the Valley.
The former San Antonio Stars left Texas and dropped their name in exchange for the Aces, a nod to the everpresent gaming culture in Las Vegas. With this move, the Aces join the Vegas Golden Knights and the incoming Las Vegas Raiders as professional sports franchises that call “Sin City” their home.
It is a move that the WNBA hopes will help their league. The WNBA continues to be held in high standards by NBA peers like Lebron James and Kobe Bryant.
