Kelsey Plum took a brief moment to have some fun during the Las Vegas Aces' 89–82 win over the Los Angeles Sparks on Saturday.

Early in the third quarter, Plum was fouled by Sparks rookie Cameron Brink on her way to the basket. As Plum fell to the hardwood, she spun around, found the camera operator sitting right in front of her and looked directly at the television audience watching from home.

Instant meme material.

Plum was one of four Aces players to finish the game in double figures, scoring 17 points on 4-of-14 shooting and tallying five assists and three steals.

It was a rough game for Brink, who committed four personal fouls before scoring her first points of the game. The No. 2 pick of the 2024 WNBA draft registered three points on 1-of-7 shooting to go along with eight rebounds and career-high five blocks.

Plum and the undefeated Aces (2–0) return to the floor Tuesday for a matchup against the Phoenix Mercury at home. The Sparks (0–2) will look for their first win of the season Tuesday against the Washington Mystics.
