A'ja Wilson, TIME100 Sports honoree, is the first Black WNBA player to get her own sneaker in 14 years, since Candace Parker in 2011. We asked her how she felt about it.
This is just a cherry on top of the mind-blowing 2025 Wilson had. The Las Vegas Aces superstar won a record fourth WNBA MVP award. She became the fastest player in league history to reach 5,000 points. And she became the first player in WNBA or NBA history to—deep breath—win a championship, claim the scoring title, and be named Finals MVP, league MVP, and Defensive Player of the Year in the same season.
Wilson is on this year’s TIME100 Sports list. From athletes and coaches to advocates and investors, see who else made the list: https://t.co/UWyd2alCq0

Father’s Day 1996:
Michael Jordan won his 4th NBA title and his first since the loss of his father, James Jordan.
After, MJ held the game ball and broke down in the locker room. A title, a tribute, and an iconic sports moment all in one 🕊️🏆
