According to AthlonSports.com, The Las Vegas Aces have a major announcement planned ahead of the Aces preseason game against the Phoenix Mercury on Tuesday.

The Aces look to make a preseason sweep before a rematch against the New York Liberty, a team that defeated them in the WNBA Semifinals last season.

The Aces come into this game with Phoenix rolling off a 112-78 win against the young Dallas Wings on Friday.

Jackie Young came up big for the Aces, scoring 28 points, grabbing down five rebounds, nine assists, and three steals.

A’ja Wilson scored 19 points, seven rebounds, three assists, and two steals.

The Aces are on a mission to reclaim their third championship in franchise history.

Before their matchup against the Mercury, the Aces plan on making the night very special for Wilson.

The team organized a special event aimed at promoting Wilson’s signature shoe with Nike, the A’One, with various activities planned for fans.

The Aces plan on pulling out all the stops for their superstar.

Back in February, Nike announced the release of the A’One, the shoe took two years to design.

“From the beginning, we designed the shoe to both accentuate my game and to provide young hoopers a tool to help them push their limits,” said Wilson.
