A'ja Wilson anchors the Las Vegas Aces at centre and represents the United States; the 2018 draft began her professional career there.
Overview
A'ja Wilson anchors the Las Vegas Aces as their centre, a 1.93 m interior presence in the WNBA. She wears 22 for the Aces and represents the United States internationally. Her role asks her to protect the paint and give Las Vegas a reliable inside option.
Her professional path began in 2018, when Las Vegas selected her first overall. That draft night tied her to the Aces, and she has remained with the franchise through every season since, building her career in one city.
Watch the defensive end: she is a shot-altering centre, and that presence allows the Aces to pressure the ball. On offence she provides a post target and a finisher who can carry the scoring load when games tighten.
