Las Vegas Aces WNBA Betting Online
2024 was the third season under head coach Becky Hammon. The Aces were the defending WNBA champions after defeating the New York Liberty in the 2023 WNBA Finals. In 2023, the Aces also finished with the most regular season wins in WNBA history, 34. Additionally, the Aces won back-to-back WNBA titles and were the first team to do so since 2001–2002. The season tipped off on Tuesday, May 14, 2024.
On May 17, 2024, the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA) announced that they would be gifting each player on the 2024 Aces roster a $100,000 sponsorship. This sponsorship is independent of the Aces organization as per the WNBA's collective bargaining agreement. On May 18, 2024, the WNBA opened an investigation into these sponsorships.
The transgressions didn't affect the start of the season, as the Aces won their first two games. They did lose to Phoenix by ten points on May 21 for their first loss. They won their next two games before losing to Atlanta to finish May 4–2. They defeated Dallas to start June but would lose their next three games. They defeated Phoenix to break the streak but lost to New York in the next game. Their losing streak would end after that as the Aces won their next four games to finish June 6–4. They extended their winning streak to six games by defeating Indiana and Washington to start July. However, an overtime loss to Los Angeles would break their winning streak.
The Aces built a new streak, winning their next four games in a row. They would lose to Chicago to finish July 6–2 and head into the Olympic break with a 16–8 record. The Aces were not as dominant upon returning from the break, losing their first game back to New York. They would defeat Los Angeles before losing two games in a row to Minnesota. Two wins bookended a loss to see the Aces finish August 3–4. With a win over Atlanta on August 30, the Aces clinched their playoff berth.
The Aces became dominant in September, winning their first three games. A four-point loss to New York on September 8 was the only loss on their record for the month. They would win the remaining five straight games, with the closest being a four-point win in Indiana on September 13. The Aces finished the regular season 27–13.
