A WNBA investigation isn’t scaring the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority away from following through with its sponsorship offers to Aces players.

The league confirmed to the Review-Journal on Saturday it was opening an investigation into the $100,000 sponsorship deals between the LVCVA and 12 Aces players. The development arose less than 24 hours after the blockbuster offers were announced Friday.

Aces forward Kierstan Bell told her TikTok followers Sunday that players have yet to receive the funds.
