WNBA Tip-Off presented by Carmax
Petty in pink.
The A’One ‘Pink A’ura’ pairs the essence of @_ajawilson22’s favorite color with her unapologetic style of play. Low, sleek, and comfortable—the perfect combination to dominate from end to end.
She came into fame as Skylar Diggins , not wife. not villain. not problem. just the girl who loved the game before it loved her back.
Skylar and Daniel got married in 2017. College sweethearts and both athletes .
But while her game soared, his never took off past Notre Dame. Life happens like that sometimes.But what makes this hit harder is how Skylar was always the one painted as the villain.Not just in marriage. In motherhood. In the WNBA.
People forget Skylar played the 2018 season pregnant. She gave everything to Dallas, and when she needed support? She got silence. Even when she had postpartum depression, there was no mental health resources and no help. Just pressure to perform. she stepped away from the wnba in 2019. Decided not to play. no one knew why. but how do you explain burnout when the world calls you ungrateful for surviving?
Then came Phoenix. a fresh start until it wasn’t . And again, the headlines painted her as “drama.” Because she dared to speak up for her teammates . For BG in Russia . She called out the Mercury for how they treated her during maternity leave after her 2nd child . She was labeled difficult, A Villian .
But now it’s 2025 and her divorce is public.She’s reclaiming her name, Her peace, Her voice. Skylar Diggins.
no hyphen, no apologies & that finally is enough.
Dawn Staley says she wanted A'ja Wilson's statue to be the only one around.
"Contrary to the belief of one of my coaching colleagues, her statue wasn't in response to winning a national championship. It was in response to being a winner at life."
