R&B star Usher finally attended a Las Vegas Aces game, fulfilling A’ja Wilson’s two-year-old request after the team’s championship win. Wilson and Usher shared a warm embrace, with Wilson presenting him with her jersey. Usher had previously invited the team to one of his concerts, where Wilson was serenaded on stage in 2023. Despite the Aces’ loss to the Chicago Sky, Wilson, Sydney Colson, and Jackie Young posed with Usher, who also met with the players after the game. Wilson had an impressive performance with 28 points and 14 rebounds, but the Sky’s Chennedy Carter led her team to victory with 34 points.
