o The two-time WNBA MVP is getting her own Nike shoe.
o It’s going to be called the “A’One.”
o The announcement was made on Saturday right before the Las Vegas Aces’ preseason game against the Puerto Rican national team at South Carolina’s Colonial Life Arena.
o She arrived at the arena wearing a sweatshirt that said, “Of Course I Have A Shoe Dot Com.”
o That site said, “You thought we'd sleep on an SEC champion, national champion, #1 draft pick, five-time All-Star, U.S. Olympic gold winner, WNBAFinals MVP, a statue-having, New York Times Best Seller, TIME 100 Most Influential People in 2024, two-time WNBA champion, two-time Defensive Player of the Year, two-time WNBA MVP, and pettiest hooper on the internet? You thought. Of course, A’ja’s got a shoe.”
o The A’One arrives in 2025 and she’s the 13th WNBA athlete t have a signature shoe.
o The Aces beat Puerto Rico 102-50 and A’ja scored 27 points with 14 rebounds.
