A'ja Wilson is having an impressive start to the season as the leader of a defending champion Las Vegas Aces team.

Last week we took a look at former Gamecocks in the WNBA, where Wilson was breaking records. In a game against Dallas, Wilson put up 36 points, 12 rebounds, and 6 steals becoming the first WNBA player in history to have at least 35 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 steals in a game.

This week is no different as Wilson broke yet another record in the WNBA. Her 20 points in 14 straight games is a WNBA record. Wilson also scored 4,000 points in the third fewest games all time in the WNBA.

The Aces are 5-4 on the year so far and two games behind the Minnesota Lynx in the Western Conference. Las Vegas, off a two game losing streak, will take on Minnesota tomorrow night.
