The Las Vegas Aces will not renew the contract of general manager Natalie Williams as part of a restructuring of their front office, the team announced Saturday.
Williams had served as general manager since 2022 and helped the Aces to back-to-back WNBA titles in 2022 and 2023.
“It has been a joy and honor to serve as General Manager of the Las Vegas Aces,” Williams said in a statement. “Winning two WNBA Championships with this incredible group of players and staff has been a dream come true. I want to thank Mark Davis and the Aces Organization for the incredible opportunity to help lead this franchise. I love the WNBA, and it has been wonderful watching the growth of the game. I’m looking forward to what lies ahead.”
Williams, 53, was a four-time All-Star during a seven-year WNBA career with the Utah Starzz and Indiana Fever.
“We are incredibly grateful for Natalie’s invaluable efforts in helping build the Aces into the premier franchise in the WNBA,” Aces president Nikki Fargas said in a statement. “Her time with the organization extends back to the league’s formative years in Utah, and she will forever be a part of our history, having left an indelible mark as both a player and an executive. We wish the best for Natalie and her family.”
