If there was a team in the league that could probably take the crown away from the Aces, it was none other than the New York Liberty. However, given how the Aces performed during this series, it is safe to say that the crown is not going anywhere.

After the game, Milwaukee Bucks star forward Giannis Antetokounmpo was spotted posing for a picture alongside A?ja Wilson. Antetokounmpo posted that picture on X, formerly Twitter, with the caption that stated Wilson was MVP and a championship as well as a hands-up emoji.
