Entering Game 3 of the 2023 WNBA Finals, the Aces were in complete control of the best-of-five series, holding a 2-0 lead after a couple of dominant wins in Las Vegas. Then, everything changed.

The Liberty stayed alive with an 87-73 victory at home behind strong showings from Jonquel Jones (27 points, eight rebounds, three assists, three blocks, two steals) and Breanna Stewart (20 points, 12 rebounds, four assists, two blocks). New York looked much more like itself after two disappointing performances.

However, the biggest storyline of Game 3 was Chelsea Gray's injury. The Aces guard appeared to suffer a left foot injury in the fourth quarter, hopping back to the locker room and sitting out the rest of the contest.

Can Las Vegas capture back-to-back titles if Gray is stuck on the bench for Game 4? Or has the momentum already shifted too far in New York's direction?

Here is everything you need to know about Aces vs Liberty, including TV and streaming options for the game.
