The WNBA's final roster cutdown week is here, and it's shaping up to be a brutal stretch for players and teams alike before the 2026 season tips off on Friday. With rosters needing to be trimmed to just 12 players, a wave of talented athletes will be hitting the waiver wire. While some will land on new development contracts thanks to the league's latest collective bargaining agreement, many others will be on the move—and the expansion Portland Fire and Toronto Tempo are providing extra landing spots for those looking for a fresh start.

For the Las Vegas Aces, the path forward is a bit clearer than for most. After waiving rookie guard Jordan Obi, the Aces have already filled their 12-woman roster. But injuries to key players like Dana Evans and Janiah Barker could open up a couple of vacancies on opening night. That gives general manager Nikki Fargas a golden opportunity to take a closer look at some intriguing free agents who might fit the Aces' championship puzzle.

With that in mind, here are a few players who could find a new home in Las Vegas during this final week before the season begins.

First up is Tina Charles, a future Hall of Famer who is still chasing that elusive championship ring. At 37, she proved she's far from done, posting 16.3 points and 5.8 rebounds per game for the Connecticut Sun in 2025. She's a classic back-to-the-basket big who thrives with the ball in her hands, and while her efficiency has dipped slightly with age, her raw numbers are more than enough to warrant a 15th WNBA season. If she's willing to embrace a reduced role and fewer minutes, Las Vegas—a team with serious title aspirations—could be the perfect fit for her final push.
