The WNBA's Las Vegas Aces, led by head coach Becky Hammon, won their second consecutive championship with a 70-69 Game 4 win over the New York Liberty.
San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich desperately wanted to watch a basketball game on Wednesday night. Just not the one he had to coach. At about the same time, Popovich was coaching the Spurs to a 117-103 NBA exhibition win over the Houston Rockets, but he would have rather been cheering on Hammon, his former assistant coach.Popovich confirmed as much during his postgame press conference.
With Wednesday's WNBA Finals win, Hammon has now won titles in each of her first two seasons as head coach. The only other coaches to accomplish that in the WNBA or NBA are Van Chancellor and John Kundla, according to ESPN.The Aces are the first repeat WNBA champions in over 20 years. Las Vegas also becomes only the third WNBA franchise to win multiple championships in a row.'This one's sweeter,' Hammon said postgame. 'It just is. It's harder to do.
