The Las Vegas Aces will host the Indiana Fever on Thursday night. The Aces were defeated 92-76 by the Atlanta Dream on Tuesday in a shocking upset. Indiana is coming off a narrow seven-point loss to the Los Angeles Sparks on the road. Indiana is just 5-23, and they'll try to put an end to their 10-game losing streak on Thursday.

"late night hoops in Vegas." - Indiana Fever
The Aces were heavy favorites against the Dream, but Atlanta guards Tiffany Hayes, and Rhyne Howard combined for 55 points in the win. A'Ja Wilson chipped in with a 22-point, 10-rebound double-double, but it wasn't enough to earn the win. As a team, the Dream shot a scorching 62.5% from three, while the Aces shot a poor 28.6%.
Look for Las Vegas to bounce back at home against the worst team in the WNBA. The home team is still the #1 seed in the Western Conference, and they lead the league in scoring and three-point shooting entering Thursday. They're hoping that Tuesday was just a minor bump in the road in what's been a great season overall.
"Double-double for [A'Ja Wilson] - Las Vegas Aces
The Fever has had an awful season. Star guard Kelsey Mitchell has carried the team game in and game out. She averages 18.3 points and 4.0 assists, but she only has two other teammates that score in the double digits.
Mitchell's failed to reach her season average in three straight contests, but her team will need her to go off if they want to snap their long losing streak. On Tuesday, they were able to keep the game close throughout, so they'll look to make Thursday's game competitive.
