The San Antonio Stars announced their relocation to Vegas following their 2017 season. Shortly after, former New York Liberty head coach Bill Laimbeer was announced as its head coach and president of basketball operations.
The Aces have last year’s No. 1 pick, Kelsey Plum, and also won the draft lottery and will have 2018’s top selection as well.
