After taking the qualification ticket of the 2025 WNBA playoffs, Las Vegas Aces end their three-game road-trip with a Wednesday night clash against Atlanta Dream, who are also close to the playoffs. It should be a high-voltage clash between two playoff contenders.

Las Vegas went on a 11-game winning streak to crack the WNBA playoffs this year. The Aces enter the fixture with a 79-74 victory over the Sky. For the fourth consecutive year, the Aces won at least 24 matches in the regular season. During this run, they also won two championships in 2022 and 2023. Upcoming matches will help them to try their bench strength.

In their current four-game homestand, the Dream outclassed both finalists in back-to-back games. Atlanta posted a 24-13 record this season which is their best record in the franchise history. In 2018, the Dream won 23 matches and reached the WNBA semifinals. This year, Atlanta is on way to end the drought of WNBA title.
