                        WNBA playoffs winners and losers: Fever slow A'ja Wilson, stun Aces; Courtney Williams leads Lynx past Mercury

The WNBA playoffs saw some surprising results over the weekend. The Indiana Fever, who had the worst regular-season record, managed to slow down the dominant A'ja Wilson and upset the Las Vegas Aces in the first game of their semifinal series. Meanwhile, the Minnesota Lynx, led by Courtney Williams, defeated the Phoenix Mercury. The Fever's strong defensive performance, particularly against the league's MVP Wilson, was a key factor in their victory over the Aces. In the other matchup, the Lynx's offensive firepower, with Williams leading the way, proved too much for the Mercury. These results have set the stage for an exciting continuation of the WNBA playoffs, with the underdogs looking to build on their momentum and the top seeds aiming to bounce back in the next games of the series.
