Aces’ head coach, Becky Hammon, is out of order in game one of the finals because her players had to prevent her from getting any more technicals. The defending champions, the Las Vegas Aces, are ready to recreate history, while the New Liberty, led by 2023 MVP Breanna Stewart, is vying to claim the first championship trophy. With the top two seeds in a tight race of expectations, the game offers a glimmer of hope for the Aces to repeat the historic feat, but Liberty remains dominant in the picture.

In the middle of the thrilling finals, what bothered the audience most was the dubious behavior of players and coaching staff regarding game etiquette. The Aces head coach was involved in such a technical infraction, which is a cause for worry.

The concerning technical foul of Becky Hammon

The most anticipated finals in WNBA history involved three MVPs, in addition to the DPOY and MVP of 2023 playing against each other. However, it felt like a regular-season encounter between them, with a 9-point victory. When the athletes are supposed to provide the buzz in such a high-stakes event, it was Becky Hammon who served the true feeling of an epic Final. Chelsea Gray had to prevent her enraged coach from taking up the ball of another technical from yelling at the referees because she’d had enough of pointing to A’ja Wilson’s three-pointer foul and traveling off limits.

Game one of the WNBA finals

The Las Vegas Aces triumphed with a score of 99-82. Thanks to Jackie Young and Kelsey Plum for displaying their X-factor prowess on the field. However, the most anticipated A’ja Wilson was not in beast mode, as she finished with 19 points. Meanwhile, Young and Plum scored 26. Young scored five three-pointers.

Liberty exhibited a good game but was not dominant enough to bag a victory. MVP 2023: Breanna led the team with 21 points, while Jonquel Jones scored 16. In the game nights, five players from Liberty held two-digit scores, yet it was in vain as the Aces aced the match.
