A’ja Wilson is the face of the WNBA.
We did not appoint her. She COMMANDED this position by putting in YEARS of work, perfecting her game, and becoming the best player in the WORLD.
This is the SAME PRICE that the face of EVERY league pays to elevate to this position.
Being white does not provide one with the PRIVILEGE of SKIPPING OUT on this invoice in ANY league.
You can TRY it, but you’ll just end up with a player who leads the league in turnovers, shoots 42% from the field, can’t guard anyone in the league, and makes a bunch of commercials while playing on perennial .500 teams.
The face of the league is not an appointed position. There is no fan vote. Ticket sales are irrelevant. Jersey sales are irrelevant.
A’ja Wilson
4x WNBA MVP
3X WNBA Champion
2x WNBA Finals MVP
3X WNBA Defensive Player of the Year

Coaching Angel Reese gotta be hell. She's super competitive, gives more effort on the floor than everyone, and is an amazing defender who shows flashes of offensive greatness.
She also forces the issue way too much, takes bad shots and can lead the game in turnovers while not being a genuine offensive threat.
