A few days prior to the draft, one of the outlying questions of WNBA free agency was answered when the New York Liberty traded its all-time leading scorer, Tina Charles, to the Washington Mystics in a three-team deal that also involved the Dallas Wings and plenty of draft picks.
A few days later – another of those outlying questions regarding the W’s free agency period was also put to rest.
Hint: Viva Liz Vegas.
Break out the good stuff because it’s official!

The Aces confirmed that its newfound big three of A’ja Wilson, Liz Cambage and Angel McCoughtry will stay intact with the signing of of Cambage to a new contract.
Last year, the Aces and Liz took a chance on one another, and it worked out better than we both could have imagined.

Last season was special – one where I fell in love with this team, my teammates, Las Vegas, and everyone at the Aces and MGM who help make us feel like one big family.
–Liz Cambage, Las Vegas Aces (release)
Last season, she made her third All-Star team with last year’s All-Star Game staged at the Aces’ Mandalay Bay Events Center home court. She was also a major factor in the Aces run to the WNBA’s semifinals. When the W is back and running again, Las Vegas is expected to be one of the league’s top contenders for a championship.
The last few weeks have been busy for Cambage. Not only has she re-upped with the Aces, but one can see her gracing the cover of Elle Magazine in Australia.
