The Las Vegas Aces’ signing of veteran guard Tiffany Mitchell adds depth and experience to their backcourt as they aim to defend their WNBA title. While Mitchell’s numbers from last season (4.9 PPG, 0.8 APG) may not stand out, her career averages (8.8 PPG, 1.8 APG) suggest she can be a reliable contributor off the bench.
Mitchell’s versatility—being able to play both guard spots—gives the Aces another rotational option, especially with the departure of key bench players like Sydney Colson. Her ability to defend and facilitate will complement the team’s star-studded lineup, including A’ja Wilson, Kelsey Plum, and Chelsea Gray. Additionally, her reunion with Wilson could enhance team chemistry, given their shared history at South Carolina.
While she may not be a primary scorer, Mitchell’s veteran presence and ability to play a role on both ends of the court make this a solid depth move for the Aces.
