Where is A’ja Wilson’s signature shoe!? How many more historical seasons does she need to have to get one? She has peers with shoe deals that have not one thing to justify having one (no need to even name names) but sis has been a 2-time MVP, DPOY twice and now a Finals MVP and that’s just the tip of her accolades in the league! WITH a season that goes down in the history books for setting records & breaking records in scoring, rebounds, double-doubles etc. The shoe deal should’ve been already! Since last year at least. Nike, what are y’all doing?!
The commercials she should be in. Her face plastered on brand items.
(Look at all she’s done and has had to do to finally get this conversation going)
[A signature leg and arm sleeve too because she’s made that combo popular.]
When I tell you the disparities in sports sponsorships and endorsements for Black women athletes is still beyond ridiculous!
