Thursday's Aces vs Fever matchup delivered one of the WNBA's wildest finishes of the season. Chelsea Gray drilled two buzzer-beating 3-pointers to power Las Vegas past Indiana, 86-84, in overtime.
Las Vegas Complete 20-Point Comeback Against Indiana
Indiana controlled most of the Fever game opening, holding a 20-point cushion in the second quarter. Then, Las Vegas started to chip away. They closed the half on a 15-0 run and opened the third quarter with seven straight points.
Late in regulation, Caitlin Clark missed two free throws with seven seconds left. That opened the door for Gray. She pump-faked from 26 feet and buried a 3 with 0.8 seconds on the clock to tie it at 75.

Overtime brought even more drama. Trailing 84-83, A'ja Wilson blocked an attempted pass from Clark. Then Gray rose up again and drained another 3-pointer at the buzzer for the win.
Wilson paced the Aces with 26 points and 13 rebounds while Kelsey Mitchell led all scorers with 28 for Indiana.
Per ESPN, no WNBA player had ever hit a game-tying regulation buzzer-beater and a game-winning OT buzzer-beater in the same game before Gray.
Las Vegas will look to take the momentum from their latest win into their weekend matchup with top-ranked Minnesota. That game is slated for Saturday at 1 PM ET on CBS.
