Las Vegas Aces guard Chelsea Gray has been ruled out for Game 4 of the WNBA Finals versus the host New York Liberty on Wednesday, coach Becky Hammon announced.

Hammon also said Tuesday that Gray — the WNBA Finals MVP last season — is listed as questionable should the best-of-five series require a Game 5 on Friday in Las Vegas. The Aces hold a 2-1 advantage in the series.
