Alyssa Thomas · When you're the heart of a team fighting for a championship, sometimes the simplest plays speak the loudest. With Phoenix trailing the Las Vegas Aces in Game 4 of the 2025 WNBA Finals, Alyssa Thomas sized up her defender and rose for a one-handed bank shot in traffic. The veteran forward's tough bucket was part of a masterful 17-point, 12-rebound, 10-assist triple-double performance that kept the Mercury competitive until the final buzzer. Thomas finished the October 10, 2025 contest shooting an efficient 7-for-11 from the field, though Phoenix ultimately fell 97-86 as the Aces claimed their third title in four years. · State of Mint · State of Mint
