Becky Hammon Reaches 150 Wins as Las Vegas Aces Coach

Her milestone shows how quickly she has risen in WNBA coaching.

Overview

  • The Aces’ 91-81 victory over the Golden State Valkyries on May 31 delivered Hammon her 150th career win as a head coach, a total that counts regular-season and playoff victories.
  • She reached the mark in 205 games, the second-fastest pace in WNBA history behind Van Chancellor, who did it in 198 games.
  • A’ja Wilson led the game with 28 points and 15 rebounds while role players such as NaLyssa Smith contributed 15 points and nine rebounds, highlighting both star impact and bench development.
  • Players publicly credited Hammon’s player-first leadership after the game with Wilson saying she would “run through a brick wall for Becky” and Hammon saying she earned the wins alongside “some of the greatest human beings to ever play.”
  • Hammon’s three championships with Las Vegas (2022, 2023 and 2025) frame the 150-win mark as part of a sustained title window and set expectations that the Aces will pursue more postseason success under her leadership.
