NEW YORK — The service on the Las Vegas Aces' charter flight to New York was, by all shared accounts, less than stellar. The flight attendant, a woman named 'Amber,' was quick to pull away the snack options and was too busy to respond to any questions or needs of her fliers.
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - OCTOBER 11: Sydney Colson #51 of the Las Vegas Aces reacts after her teammate Kiah Stokes #41 hit a 3-pointer against the New York Liberty in the first quarter of Game Two of the 2023 WNBA Playoffs finals at Michelob ULTRA Arena on October 11, 2023 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Aces defeated the Liberty 104-76.
Guard Kelsey Plum, who is averaging 26 points on 49% shooting in the Finals, will shuffle over to do more ball-handling usually given to Gray. Jackie Young, who averaged 25 points in the first two games before scoring eight on Sunday, will also carry more, Hammon said. They are one win away from a second consecutive championship and have two chances.
She credits coming from a family of funny people and her love of comedies. In 2020, she took some acting classes, but had never done improv before even though she had always wanted to do it. “It’s a very fun depiction of two WNBA stars who are climbing the ladder in the WNBA,” WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert said. “I think it’s great fun. Syd Colson literally could be an actress for the rest of her life, but she’s really good on the court, too.”“They need to see our physical comedy, because everything we say isn’t necessarily funny, but it might be actions,” Colson said. “And so they pitched it as a show and we were like, ‘All right, let’s do it.
Then Colson met Plaisance and they clicked. Colson said on an away trip to Phoenix, they spoke for hours in her room and “the time flew by.” They hung out the entire day. Colson told Paradiso she thought her and Plaisance could have something good for a podcast, but it would have to be recorded on video, too.
