Wilson put forth a dominating performance, scoring 45 points, three rebounds, three assists, two blocks, and a steal while making 83% of her field goals and 100% of her 3-pointers plus all 13 of her free throws to lead the Aces to their third straight victory.<\/p>

In doing so, Wilson became the first player in WNBA history with multiple career 45-point games, the first player to score 45 or more points while shooting 80% or better from the field, and the first player with five or more career 40-point games.<\/p>

Her 45 points were also the eighth-most points in a WNBA game.<\/p>

Social media was buzzing after the game as fans sung Wilson\u2019s praises.<\/p>
