Kelsey Plum sealed her second WNBA championship with a kiss.
The Las Vegas Aces guard shared a sweet embrace with her husband, Giants tight end Darren Waller, on the court at Barclays Center after defeating the New York Liberty, 70-69, in Game 4 of the WNBA Finals Wednesday night.
The couple, who tied the knot on March 4 in Las Vegas, were seen hugging in an emotional exchange, during which Plum appeared to let out a few joyful tears with her head on Waller’s chest.
The NFL star, who cheered on his wife in his courtside seat, also played the role of proud husband and filmed her with his phone after the game.
Plum finished with seven points, eight rebounds and five assists in 40 minutes of play — the most minutes out of her Aces teammates in Game 4.
Las Vegas was without their starting point guard Chelsea Gray and center Kiah Stokes, who were both sidelined with foot injuries suffered in Game 3.
The Aces joined the Los Angeles Sparks (2001-02) and the Houston Comets (1997-2000) as the only teams in WNBA history to win back-to-back titles.
Las Vegas beat the Connecticut Sun in four games to win the 2022 WNBA Championship.

Plum brought out her big speaker — just as she did last year in Connecticut — for the champagne celebrations.
It’s unclear if she’ll smoke a stogy at the Aces championship parade, just as she did during last year’s parade.
The Aces announced on Instagram that a championship celebration will take place on Oct. 23.
