The **Las Vegas Aces** are a professional women's basketball team competing in the Western Conference of the WNBA. Established in 1997 as the Utah Starzz, the franchise relocated to San Antonio in 2003, becoming the Silver Stars and later the Stars, before moving to Las Vegas in 2018 and rebranding as the Aces. The team plays home games at the Michelob Ultra Arena in Paradise, Nevada, near Las Vegas, notably standing out as one of the few WNBA teams without an NBA counterpart in the same city[3][4]. Owned since 2021 by Mark Davis, who also owns the NFL's Las Vegas Raiders, the Aces have benefited from strong organizational support, including plans for a dedicated training facility near the Raiders' complex[3]. The team’s rise to prominence accelerated after the move, reaching the WNBA Finals multiple times and securing their first championship in 2022. They have since won three WNBA titles (2022, 2023, and 2025), establishing themselves as a powerhouse in women's basketball[4]. Key players like star center A’ja Wilson, known for her scoring, rebounding, and defensive prowess, have been instrumental in the Aces’ success. Wilson led the team in points (26.8 per game), rebounds (10.0), and blocks (2.5) in the 2025 season, while guard Chelsea Gray contributed significantly in assists (7.2 per game) and steals (2.2)[2]. The Aces are known for their strong team dynamics and competitiveness, reflected in their impressive 2025 regular-season record of 30-14, placing second in their conference[1][2]. The Las Vegas Aces represent a blend of sports innovation and strategic business growth in women's professional basketball, leveraging high-profile ownership, strong player talent, and state-of-the-art facilities to cement their status in the WNBA and broader sports market[
