Las Vegas Aces Extend Their Streak Into Chicago as Sky Seek a Miracle

The Aces are surging toward second place in the standings after a dominant comeback against Washington, while the Sky are mired in a 14-loss stretch and desperately seeking a spark—even with the emotional backdrop of retiring Candace Parker’s jersey.
