Stewie dropped 33 & 14 last night. A’ja is putting up some of the best #s we’ve ever seen

I think the reason wnba players may come off as “jealous” or “not liking CC” to casual viewers is bc they’ve had to answer the same Q’s about her over and over since the season started

[Queer Latifah ✨ @TheAfrocentricI]

I’m still not over this but as a former shot putter and discus thrower, I get it.

[KB 🦍 @Dotmug_330]

& they had the nerve to say A isn’t marketable… shiiiiiii she is THE STAR 🌟!!!

Beyond A'ja Wilson's superstardom on the court let's also appreciate how thoughtful she is answering questions.

To be this insightful to a simple "how are you feeling?" is awesome. She seems great to watch and cover.

When we talk about the WNBA you have to mention the Blackness and queerness. It would be naive to act as if these aren’t important levels to the nastiness we’re seeing.

Draymond Green says A'ja Wilson needs to be viewed as the most marketable player in the WNBA and has the potential to be the greatest player of all time

“The best thing since sliced bread in the WNBA is A'ja Wilson. I'm not necessarily in the mindset that it's all Caitlin Clark, no, A'ja Wilson is great. A'ja Wilson to me is the American dream. Coming from a two-parent household, grew, got better, young Black girl, had everything against her, beat the odds to become what soon will be known as the greatest player to ever grace the WNBA. That's quite honestly my opinion. I think A'ja Wilson is as marketable as anybody in the WNBA, but you have to figure out how to market the product.”

First of all, queer spaces don't belong to only you. Ya all really need to stop gatekeeping everything. And second, gay men and lesbians can bring their cishet family members and people who are allies but it's suddenly an issue when a bisexual woman brings her bf to pride?
