1 A’ja Wilson makes WNBA history again
A’ja Wilson’s record MVP was one of the week’s defining sports stories. The Las Vegas Aces star won her fifth WNBA Most Valuable Player award, extending her own league record. She also became the first player to win the honor in three consecutive seasons.
Wilson averaged 9.4 rebounds, a career-best 3.2 assists and 1.9 blocks. It’s another landmark in a career already marked by multiple MVP awards and championships.[1]
2 Rays capitalize on a messy Yankees night
Tampa Bay took a 2–0 lead in its American League Division Series after beating New York 5–2 on October 5. Richie Palacios delivered a two-run single during a four-run fifth inning, while the Yankees’ defense faltered.
The game stood out for an unusual postseason line: New York made four errors and managed only three hits. Tampa Bay turned those mistakes into a crucial early advantage.[2]
3 Dallas pulls off a late NFL turnaround
The Cowboys erased a 30–16 second-half deficit to beat the Houston Texans 34–30 on October 4. Javonte Williams scored three rushing touchdowns after halftime, and CeeDee Lamb caught the go-ahead touchdown with 40 seconds left.
The comeback was among the weekend’s most dramatic NFL finishes, turning a seemingly comfortable Houston lead into a last-minute Dallas win.[3]
