In Photos: A'ja Wilson makes 83-year-old fan's dream come true after her adorable signboard wished for picture with Aces forward

A'ja Wilson helped the Las Vegas Aces take down the Connecticut Sun on the road on Friday. Then, she granted the wish of an 83-year-old fan to have a photo with her after the game.

The WNBA MVP front-runner had another solid game for the Aces as they defeated the Sun, 72-67, at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville. She had 20 points, eight rebounds, two steals and two blocks in 37 minutes to help the Aces to their fourth straight win.

While A'ja Wilson was doing her thing, in the stands was an elderly woman, who was rooting for her and holding up a sign seeking a request to have a picture with the two-time WNBA champion.

Her sign read:

"I'm 83 and hoping for a photo with A'ja Wilson"

Not one to disappoint, Wilson gamely granted the wish of her 83-year-old fan, posing for a photo courtside following their victory.

Apart from A'ja Wilson, Aces teammate Kelsey Plum also stepped up as she had a game-high 27 points. Chelsea Gray, meanwhile, had 13 points and six assists.

For Connecticut, it was Brionna Jones who top-scored with 17 points, with Marina Mabrey adding 15.

The win improved Las Vegas to 22-12, currently fourth in the standings. The Aces next play on Sunday against the New York Liberty in Brooklyn.

A'ja Wilson notches seventh straight 20-point game in win over Connecticut

The 20 points that A'ja Wilson had in their 72-67 victory over the Connecticut Sun on Friday was her seventh straight game of 20 or more points, extending a run that has made her one of the hottest players in the WNBA of late.

Her streak started in the Las Vegas Aces' game against the Minnesota Lynx on Aug. 23, where she finished with 24 points. She continued to produce 20-point games after, breaching the 40 points twice on Aug. 27 against the Dallas Wings (42) and Sept. 1 against the Phoenix Mercury (41).

Against the Sun on Friday, Wilson was steady from the floor, going 8-of-15 in 37 minutes of play. She had a slow start, scoring only five points in the opening half. The two-time league MVP, however, picked up her scoring in the second half, going for 15 as she helped stave off the fight put up by the host squad Sun.

The impressive scoring streak of Wilson has helped her maintain her standing as the best scorer in the WNBA this season. She is currently averaging a league-high 27.5 points, while adding 12.1 rebounds, 2.7 blocks, 2.3 assists and 1.9 steals in 34 minutes.
