Kelsey Plum went viral on Tuesday night for her pregame outfit, which followed her divorce from New York Giants tight end Darren Waller.
The Las Vegas Aces star had social media going wild with her outfit before the team took on the Phoenix Mercury to begin the 2024 season.
Plum wore all leather, along with a couple of necklaces that hung down her chest and a cropped vest that showed off her abs. In a post on Instagram, she wrote, “Ring night.” It was time for the Aces to get their WNBA championship rings.
Social media couldn’t believe their eyes:
Prior to the game, the banner was unfurled, hoisted, and set next to the 2022 one. The Aces were also presented with their title rings. The announced sellout audience of 10,419 was then invited to join in on “We are the Champions” during the game’s first timeout. That is the biggest attendance the Aces have ever had at Michelob Ultra Arena, per WNBA.com.
As for the game on Tuesday night, the two-time champion Las Vegas Aces defeated the Phoenix Mercury 89-80 despite a late comeback by A’ja Wilson, who finished with 30 points and 13 rebounds.
For Las Vegas, Jackie Young added 23 points, and Kelsey Plum contributed five assists to her 19 points.
