On the court, WNBA All-Star guard Kelsey Plum is someone opposing squads need to look out for. Off the court, though, the Las Vegas Aces star also garnered some attention in some instances, particularly a postgame interview moment with a cameraman that went viral.
Just recently, Aces defeated the Dallas Wings 104-85 in a dominant performance. All-Star A’ja Wilson led the way for the Aces, scoring 28 points and grabbing 10 rebounds to become the franchise’s all-time leading scorer with 4,301 career points. Wilson surpassed the previous record held by Sophia Young-Malcolm.
Plum added 23 points, while Jackie Young scored 18 and Chelsea Gray contributed 12 for the Aces. The Aces built a 51-48 halftime lead, then used a 9-0 run in the third quarter to pull away. Dallas was unable to significantly cut into the deficit despite a strong effort from Odyssey Sims, who scored a game-high 25 points.
The win improved the Aces’ record to 13-7 on the season, as they bounced back from a loss to the Los Angeles Sparks. The Wings, on the other hand, dropped to 5-17 on the year. With the victory, the Aces swept the regular season series against the Wings 2-0. The game was played in front of 10,369 fans at the Michelob ULTRA Arena in Las Vegas.

Throughout 20 games this season, the Aces star has averaged 19.2 points on 37 percent shooting from deep, 2.2 rebounds, and 4.7 assists in 35.4 minutes per game. Moreover, Las Vegas is in third place in the Western Conference with a second-ranked offense among 12 teams in the WNBA.
Without a doubt, Plum is a talent any team would love to have on the court. That sentiment remains off the court, as evidenced by her recent moment with a cameraman that went viral.
