NEW YORK (AP) — A'ja Wilson will be on the court for Las Vegas' decisive Game 3 on Thursday night against the Indiana Fever after the WNBA didn't suspend or fine her following an incident with a fan during Game 2 of the series.

A person familiar with the ruling said the decision was made after officials did an in-game review and determined Wilson never left the court area while pointing and shouting at the fan. She wasn't ejected for that reason.

Wilson, a four-time MVP, said after the game that the fan had been shouting and pointing at her. She was called for a technical foul and the fan was escorted out of the court area, but later returned to see Indiana’s 99-89 season-saving victory.

The person also said that the fan didn’t violate the Fan Code of Conduct so was allowed to return to their seat.
