Aces face an offseason shake-up after semifinal sweep, with Jackie Young's future looming

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Anything short of a WNBA championship is considered a disappointment for the Aces, so changes almost certainly are coming after Las Vegas was swept out of the semifinals by Golden State on Friday night.Whether that change involves the Big Three is the Aces' biggest question entering the offseason because five-time All-Star guard Jackie Young is a free agent.She averaged career highs in points per game (18.9) and assists (6.8) to go with a 4.4-rebounding average and shooting percentages of 48.8 from the floor and 38.3 from 3-point range.“I think she had a career year this year,” coach Becky Hammon said. “Had some unbelievable performances throughout the season, so obviously it’s a big priority that we retain her services. We’ll see what those thoughts look like, but I know what it looks like from our end. Ultimately, it’s going to come down to her decision."If Young returns, she will rejoin a core that includes five-time MVP A'ja Wilson and six-time All-Star point guard
