LAS VEGAS — It’s no shock coach Becky Hammon was crowned WNBA Coach of the Month for May, 2022. The 16 year WNBA veteran led her team to 9-1 and it is the best 10-game start in franchise history. The Aces are averaging a league-best 109.8 points per 100 possessions, and a league-high 91.8 points per game. Currently the Aces are on a seven-game winning streak heading into Thursday evening’s game against the Connecticut Sun after defeating them 89-81 on Tuesday. A’ja Wilson, Aces forward, was also celebrated as she was named player of the month for the Western Conference. Wilson is averaging a double-double to start the season with 17.2 points and 10.4 rebounds per game. The Aces are looking unstoppable under Hammon and we’re here for it!
As we keep a close eye on the Aces and their nearly perfect start, we can’t help but notice they are causing quite the buzz as they take on headline after headline. Their performance has caught the attention of NFL Legend Tom Brady who sat court side to watch a competitive game against the Connecticut Sun.
Tom Brady goes onto social media and expressed his gratitude to the Aces sharing via Twitter:
All eyes are on these WNBA stars, and it’s been a legendary start to Becky Hammon's WNBA coaching career - it’s only the beginning.
