The 2020 Las Vegas Aces season was the franchise's 23rd season in the Women's National Basketball Association and the second year the franchise is based in Las Vegas - after relocating from San Antonio and Utah. This was the second season under head coach Bill Laimbeer. The season tipped off on May 26, 2019 versus the Los Angeles Sparks.[1]
The Aces started the season 7–5 and were never able to put together a winning streak of more than two games. However, the Aces improved in July and went 7–2 during that month. Their record included two separate three game winning streaks. One of their two losses actually occurred in August, due to an earthquake delayed game. The Aces cooled off in August, going 6–5. The record included a four game winning streak, and a three game losing streak. The Aces locked up a post season bid on August 18. The Aces went 1–1 in September to finish 21–13 on the year. This record secured them the fourth seed in the playoffs.
As the fourth seed, the Aces hosted the Chicago Sky in their second round match. The Aces won a close game 93–92 to advance to the semifinals. There they faced the top-seeded Washington Mystics. The Aces ended up losing to the Mystics, three games to one.
