    A'ja Wilson is now the leading scorer in Las Vegas Aces franchise history — surpassing the previous mark (4,300) set by Sophia Young-Malcolm.

    Wilson set the record while recording another massive double-double — notching 28 points and 10 rebounds in a win over the Dallas Wings on Sunday afternoon.

    Wilson received a huge standing ovation from the Aces' home crowd at Michelob ULTRA Arena.

    Wilson is the clear frontrunner for this year's league MVP trophy. The two-time MVP leads the WNBA in points (26.9) and blocks (2.7) per game. She ranks second in rebounding (10.9), trailing only Chicago Sky rookie Angel Reese.

    Not only did Wilson continue her dominance down low on Sunday afternoon, she also lit it up from behind the three-point arc. The superstar center knocked down 3-4 three-point attempts in the Aces' 104-85 win over Dallas.

    Wilson, 27, will no doubt continue to shatter this franchise record as she moves forward in her already-stellar WNBA career.

    Wilson and the Aces will face off against the Seattle Storm in their next matchup on Wednesday.
