A'ja Wilson made a turnaround jumper with 0.3 seconds left, capping a stellar 34-point night and lifting the Las Vegas Aces over the Phoenix Mercury 90-88 on Wednesday night for a 3-0 lead in the WNBA Finals.

The Aces are now one victory away from winning their third title in four seasons. Game 4 is Friday in Phoenix.

Las Vegas had what looked like a comfortable 76-59 lead entering the fourth quarter, but the Mercury closed the gap to 84-83 with 3:06 left on Kahleah Copper’s 3-pointer.

DeWanna Bonner tied it at 86-all on a 3 with 1:33 left and made two free throws with 1:01 remaining to tie it at 88.

That set up Wilson's heroics in the final seconds. The four-time MVP made her turnaround jumper over Alyssa Thomas and Bonner as the Mercury's home crowd groaned.

“I just needed the bucket to go in," Wilson said. "I didn’t see who was in front of me. I didn’t care. It’s the finals.”

Phoenix had one final try to get a bucket, but Bonner's quick jumper was no good.

Wilson continued her dominant postseason run, making 11 of 20 shots from the field and adding four assists. She is averaging more than 26 points in 11 postseason games and her 291 total points over 11 games is a WNBA postseason record.

Bonner led the Mercury with 25 points while Satou Sabally had 24. Copper scored 11 of her 17 points in the fourth quarter. Thomas was one assist short of a triple-double with 14 points and 12 rebounds.
