The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA), the city's tourism agency, has announced a $100,000 sponsorship for each player on the Las Vegas Aces roster for the 2024 and 2025 WNBA seasons. This unprecedented move aims to recognize the players individually and encourage them to continue representing Las Vegas, with hopes of achieving a three-peat.
