How to watch Dallas Wings vs Las Vegas Aces: TV/stream info, preview, tip off time
The Dallas Wings travel to Las Vegas to take on the Las Vegas Aces tonight at 10 PM ET at the Michelob Ultra Arena. This is the first official matchup between the pair this season. During a May 2 preseason game, the Aces came out on top 112-78. The last time the two teams faced off during the 2024 season was back in September, when the Aces also won 98-84. Paige Bueckers is back, but Wings still struggling Sitting dead last in the Western Conference, the Wings (1-10) are coming off a six-game losing streak, their worst start to the season since 2012. The Wings' last win came during a 109-87 game against the Connecticut Sun on May 27. On Wednesday night, they fell 93-80 to the Phoenix Mercury, despite the eagerly awaited return of Paige Bueckers, who missed four games due to the WNBA concussion protocol/illness. Bueckers put up a historic performance, scoring a career-high 35 points in her return (22 in the first quarter) and became the fourth Wings rookie to reach 30-plus points in a single game. Bueckers now joins Indiana Fever's Caitlin Clark as the only two rookies in WNBA history to record a game with 35 points and five 3-pointers made. She also became the third player in WNBA history to record a 35-point game within their first 10 games, joining Ace's A'ja Wilson & former Chicago Sky player, Chennedy Carter. However, the Wings are still struggling on both ends of the court, going 5-of-19 from the 3 vs the Mercury. Besides Bueckers, the rest of the Wings went 16 of 48 (33%) from the field. Mary Omatiga, A'ja Wilson doubtful for Aces, who look to end losing streak Fourth in the Western Conference, the Aces (4-4) are also fresh off a loss on Wednesday night, falling 97-89 to the Los Angeles Sparks for their first game in a three-game home stand. They're on a two-game losing streak, also falling 95-68 to the Golden State Valkyries on Saturday. Against the Sparks, Aces fought back from a 20-point deficit, with Chelsea Gray putting up a season-high 28 points and Jackie Young tied her career-high of 34 points, but it wasn't enough to secure the win. Aces star A'Ja Wilson left the game with a head injury during the third quarter and her status is doubtful for the matchup tonight. Before she left the court, Wilson went 9 of 10 at the free-throw line to finish with 13 points, eight rebounds and five assists in 28 minutes.

Joaquin Buckley: 'Smart' Khabib Nurmagomedov knew he couldn't handle guys at 170 pounds
Joaquin Buckley: 'Smart' Khabib Nurmagomedov knew he couldn't handle guys at 170 pounds Unlike Islam Makhachev, Joaquin Buckley thinks Khabib Nurmagomedov wanted no part of welterweight. Makhachev (27-1 MMA, 16-1 UFC) relinquished his UFC lightweight title after a record four title defenses for a move up to 170 pounds. He is expected to challenge Jack Della Maddalena for the welterweight title later in the year. Buckley (21-6 MMA, 11-4 UFC) lauds Makhachev for his decision, something his mentor Nurmagomedov didn't do during his undefeated career. "He's going to be over his brother Khabib, I ain't going to lie to you," Buckley said on Demetrious Johnson's YouTube channel. "That's the only thing Khabib was missing." Buckley explains why he thinks Nurmagomedov never moved up to welterweight. "Khabib was smart, though," Buckley said. "He knew he couldn't handle guys at 170 (pounds). Them arms was too short. He don't get to nobody. So with that being said, much respect for Islam for actually going up, moving up in weight, and really wanting to challenge yourself. The only thing that I say is some bull(sh*t) is just that matchup. That matchup don't make no sense. Him and JDM ain't going to do no numbers." Buckley previously said he doesn't see Makhachev sticking around the sport if he can capture the UFC welterweight title. "New Mansa" is on his quest for a title shot when he meets former champion Kamaru Usman (20-4 MMA, 15-3 UFC) in Saturday's UFC on ESPN 69 (ESPN, ESPN+) headliner at State Farm Arena in Atlanta.
