Jackie Young's 24 points and Kelsey Plum's 23 points boosted the Las Vegas Aces to a 94-87 comeback victory over the host Chicago Sky on Thursday night.

Chelsea Gray made clutch late-game plays to finish with 19 points and 10 assists and A'ja Wilson added 18 points as the Aces (30-4) overcame a 16-point deficit to win for the sixth time in their past seven regular-season games.

Wilson was fresh off a 53-point performance two nights earlier that matched the WNBA single-game record. She shot 9-for-16 on Thursday and didn't attempt a free throw.

The Sky (13-21) lost for the sixth time in seven games despite Marina Mabrey's 22-point outing that included four 3-point baskets.

Elizabeth Williams had 17 points and nine rebounds, Kahleah Copper posted 13 points and Courtney Williams ended up with nine points for Chicago.

Wilson and Young grabbed 10 rebounds apiece. Aside from the four players who racked up 18 or more points, the Aces received just 10 points total from their other players.

The Aces trailed by 16 points in the second quarter and by 13 points in the third. Las Vegas finished 18-for-18 on free throws, with Plum perfect on her eight attempts.

Gray scored five straight points, including converting on a three-point play, to push the Aces to an 86-80 lead with 4:17 remaining.

Elizabeth Williams scored the next two baskets, slicing the lead to two. Gray countered for the Aces with the next four points, two free throws and a jumper. Plum's two foul shots with 20.1 seconds remaining pretty much clinched it even though Mabrey followed with a 3-pointer for Chicago.

Chicago led 50-37 at halftime after Elizabeth Williams scored on a drive for the last of her six points in the final minute of the second quarter.

Both teams shot 33.3 percent from 3-point range for the game, with Las Vegas at 8-for-24 and Chicago at 9-for-27.
