LAS VEGAS (July 7, 2026) – The Las Vegas Aces announced today they signed 6-4 guard/forward Justine Pissott, who was drafted out of Vanderbilt in the second round of the 2026 WNBA Draft by Indiana.

Signed as a development player for Indiana, Pissott played one preseason game, scoring 8 points on 2 of 3 from behind the arc in a 109-91 victory over New York.

Pissot started her collegiate career at Tennessee in 2022-23 and aided the Lady Vols to a 25-12 record and the Sweet 16, before transferring to Vanderbilt, for her final three years. While at Vanderbilt, Pissott helped the Commodores to a 74-26 record and three NCAA Tournament appearances. As a senior, she averaged career-highs of 11.1 ppg, 4.5 rpg and 2.3 apg in leading Vandy to a 29-5 slate, including 13-3 in the SEC, the Sweet 16 and a No. 6 final ranking.

Further, the 3-point specialist saw a vast improvement in her shooting from deep – going from 26.1% in attempting fewer than two 3s a game as a freshman to 42.2% while averaging almost seven 3-point attempts per outing as a senior.

The Tom’s River, New Jersey, native was a 2022 McDonald’s All-American out of Red Bank Catholic High School.

Pissott also played for USA Basketball as a member of the 2022 USA U18 National Team. She averaged 6.0 ppg, 3.5 rpg and 2.8 apg en route to the FIBA U18 AmeriCup gold medal.
