The Las Vegas Aces guard, Kelsey Plum, shared a touching courtside embrace with her husband, Darren Waller, the star tight end for the New York Giants, following the team's victory in the WNBA Finals.
The Aces clinched a heart-pounding 70-69 victory in Game 4 of the WNBA Finals against the New York Liberty, and it was a night filled with not only triumph but also emotional moments.
Plum, who finished the game with seven points, eight rebounds, and five assists in a remarkable 40 minutes of play, was visibly moved by the victory.
As she hugged her husband, who had been cheering her on from his courtside seat, Plum appeared to let out tears of joy, resting her head on Waller's chest in a touching display of emotion.
This touching moment comes just months after the couple tied the knot on March 4 in Las Vegas, making their bond even stronger in both their professional and personal lives.
Waller also took on the role of a proud husband, filming his wife with his phone to capture the memorable celebration.
Kelsey Plum's reaction
Plum added her personal touch to the post-game festivities, bringing out a speaker for the champagne celebration, a tradition she started last year during the championship celebration in Connecticut.
The question on fans' minds now is whether Plum will continue her tradition of smoking a cigar at the Aces' championship parade, mirroring the celebration from the previous year.
Kelsey did not miss the opportunity to celebrate on her X account, with a recounting of the adversities the team overcame to reach the two-time championship.
HURT, ARRESTED, SUED... CHAMPIONS
Aces' path to victory
The Aces, who were without their starting point guard Chelsea Gray and center Kiah Stokes due to foot injuries sustained in Game 3, secured their second consecutive WNBA title.
They now join the elite ranks of teams like the Los Angeles Sparks and the Houston Comets as the only franchises in WNBA history to achieve back-to-back championships.
The Aces have already announced that a championship celebration will be held on October 23 to honor their remarkable achievement, capping off a season filled with adversity and ultimately crowned with glory.
