Kiss For A Win, Kelsey Plum And Her Husband Darren Waller Kissed On Court After Kelsey Won Second WNBA Title
With a kiss, Kelsey Plum won her second WNBA title. That was really special day for Kelsey.
After winning Game 4 of the WNBA Finals against the New York Liberty, 70-69, on Wednesday night, the Las Vegas Aces guard gave her husband, Giants tight end Darren Waller, a tender embrace on the court at Barclays Center.
Plum appeared to cry a few happy tears with her head on Waller’s chest during the couple’s emotional embrace, which was witnessed after they were married on March 4 in Las Vegas.

In addition to supporting his spouse from his courtside seat, the NFL player also took on the role of a pleased husband by filming her on his phone following the game.
Plum played the most minutes of any of her Aces teammates in Game 4, finishing with seven points, eight rebounds, and five assists in 40 minutes.

Due to foot injuries they sustained in Game 3, Kiah Stokes, the starting center, and point guard Chelsea Gray were both out for Las Vegas.
The Aces are now only the second club in WNBA history to win back-to-back championships, along with the Los Angeles Sparks (2001–02) and the Houston Comets (1997–2000).

In four games, Las Vegas defeated the Connecticut Sun to win the WNBA Championship for 2022.
For the champagne celebrations, Plum pulled out her large speaker, just like she did in Connecticut the year before.
