Las Vegas Aces star A’ja Wilson had a great weekend as Nike unveiled its new signature logo for her.
A’yyyyyyyyy
Can't match that @_ajawilson22 shine 🪩 Hyped to reveal the A’ logo.

Fans couldn’t help but notice her star-shaped signature logo, which the company said was “inspired by her distinctive style, incredible performance, and unapologetic realness.”
Wilson drew a star in the ‘A’ of her signature.
Not everybody was thrilled with it.
Members of the sports media website ‘Just Women’s Sports’ sent out a video basically dissing her logo as one person could be heard saying, “It looks like a vertebrae,” while another added the logo being “Ass”.
Maybe they thought A’ja Wilson wouldn’t see it, but she eventually got word and responded to the people in the video and the site.
“I get ppl are gonna have their opinions and think pieces & that’s all fine and dandy it’s all apart of it but this is lame asf coming from a site that suppose to be for “us”,” Wilson wrote.
“the only “Ass” I see are the ppl apart of this segment,” she added.

Teammate Alysha Clark jumped in her comments and stated, “I unfollowed them a while ago b/c they were on some weirdo stuff with how they talked about or celebrated certain players/teams.”

A’ja Wilson Reveals Special Nickname She Gave Angel Reese
On Thursday, the Chicago Sky will welcome the back-to-back WNBA Champions Las Vegas Aces, and with it, we will see A’ja Wilson take on Angel Reese for the first time.
In the lead-up to the upcoming game, Wilson spoke about the connection with Reese and fellow WNBA rookie Jessika Carter.
“I reach out, but I also don’t hover. But I definitely let them know that I’m always in their corner. I’m here with them, for them. If they have any questions, don’t be afraid to ask me,” Wilson said, per Las Vegas Review-Journal.
Wilson also mentioned the nickname she used to have for Reese while mentoring her in college. Wilson used to call Reese “daughter.”
A’ja always believed in Angel 🥹😭#wnba #skytown pic.twitter.com/1UsqzMFWzW
