A'ja Wilson injury status vs. Wings

As the Aces star in Wilson left the aforementioned contest with a concerning injury, it led to her being doubtful and eventually ruled out for Friday's game. Las Vegas head coach Becky Hammon spoke about the incident where Wilson was hit in the face, trying to stop a drive by a player from Los Angeles.
“She was bleeding,” Hammon said in her post-game press conference, according to ESPN. “She's going to go to the doctor tomorrow and see what's going on. I don't have anything beyond that.”
Wilson would be taken out of the game with just over a minute left in the third quarter, where he had scored 13 points, though most came from the free-throw line, making nine from the charity stripe, as she was two of 12 from the field. The team would lose 97-89 to the Sparks, where Hammon spoke about the aspects that were “stinkers” aside from Jackie Young and Chelsea Gray, who had 34 and 28 points, respectively.
“We score 89 points, and we only had two good offensive production nights: Chelsea and Jackie. Everybody else were stinkers,” Hammon said. “The bench was a stinker. But 89 points should be enough to win a game. You can't give up 50 points at halftime. We're still searching for that 40-minute game. It's like a damn unicorn.”
At any rate, it's now clear that Wilson won't be in the lineup here.
