Aces Storm Paris: Las Vegas Dominates Sentinels 115-91 Behind Bergstrom's Barrage
Bergstrom's Career Night Fuels Aces' Road Rout
PARIS – The Las Vegas Aces showcased their offensive firepower on Saturday, leaving the Paris Sentinels in their wake with a commanding 115-91 victory in February 2026 Season action. After a closely contested first quarter, the Aces unleashed a relentless offensive attack, particularly from beyond the arc, to secure their road win.
The Sentinels held an early lead, with Luna Diaz leading the charge with 19 points. A field goal from Diaz and a triple from Noah Harrison kept Paris within striking distance early. However, the Aces quickly found their rhythm. Elias Bergstrom ignited the Las Vegas offense, scoring a game-high 20 points, including multiple crucial three-pointers that began to shift the momentum. His sharpshooting was a constant thorn in the Sentinels’ side.
By halftime, the Aces had established a substantial lead, fueled by a balanced scoring attack and exceptional ball movement that resulted in 29 assists compared to just 5 turnovers. Sasha Volkov added 17 points, and Bjorn Mortensen contributed a double-double with 15 points and 9 rebounds, highlighting the Aces’ collective strength.
“We knew we had to come out and set the tone early,” said Bergstrom after the game. “Our offense was clicking tonight, and it felt good to see the shots fall.” Sentinels coach Antoine Dubois acknowledged the Aces’ superior execution. “Las Vegas played a fantastic game. Their shooting was lights out, and we struggled to contain them, especially from three-point range.” Despite spirited efforts from Julian Blackwood and Rhys Williams, who chipped in 10 points each for Paris, the Sentinels couldn’t overcome the Aces’ offensive onslaught.
