To say the Las Vegas Aces' Kierstan Bell has been on a journey in the WNBA would be an understatement.

Amidst the outside noise, she persevered into now playing a legit role for a Las Vegas team that is one win away from a WNBA Championship.

The once ridiculed Las Vegas Aces bench player became an integral piece in the Aces midseason turnaround and is one win away from the sweetest championship in her career to date.

While it's easy for new fans of the game to assume A'ja Wilson has always been in the GOAT conversation, the reality is that the climb was anything but easy.

But knowing that backstory makes her game winner on Wednesday all the more meaningful.

What does the WNBA's labor fight look like to someone that has intimate knowledge about how it all works?

On this week's Ball Up Top, Andrew is joined by former NBPA Executive Director Tamika Tremaglio to discuss a CBA negotiation for the ages.

Tamika Tremaglio helped lead the negotiations for the NBA's Collective Bargaining Agreement in 2023 and advised on the WNBA's CBA in 2020. So what are her thoughts on the W's labor battle?

On October 8th, 2021, A’ja Wilson was blocked by Brittney Griner with a series on the line.

Four years to the day, the Aces superstar elevated over Alyssa Thomas to get Vegas within one win of a title.

A proper payoff for a hero’s journey, @aghaubner.bsky.social writes.

With A WNBA Finals Game Winner In Hand, A'ja Wilson's Ascent Is Now Complete

There's no question about it now. One win away from a third WNBA title in four years and on the heels of a Game Three game winning jumper, A'ja Wilson is officially the undisputed best in the world.
