Cash the Check, A’ja 💸

This deal feels even bigger when you look at what A’ja’s been doing. 

In case you missed it in WNBA news, MVP and all-around superstar A’ja Wilson just inked a six-year extension with Nike, and apparently, it’s one of the richest shoe deals in women’s basketball. And let me tell you: well deserved.

A’ja is the best player in the league, and that’s not up for debate. If you’ve been paying attention to WNBA games or her stats for the LV Aces, this move just makes sense.

Now, before anyone gets too worked up about her deal not being the highest-paying, let’s break that down. The only reason Caitlin Clark’s Nike deal might edge this one out is because it’s for eight years. If A’ja’s extension was stretched that long, trust me, it would’ve topped them all. But six years? A’ja still comes out on top where it matters, being the face of women’s basketball.

A’ja Wilson: MVP for a Reason

This deal feels even bigger when you look at what A’ja’s been doing. She’s already a three-time MVP, a two-time league champ, and a record-breaking scoring machine. Last season alone, A’ja became the first WNBA player ever to crack 1,000 points in a single campaign; 1,021 points, to be exact. If you’re looking at the A’ja Wilson stats, they’re honestly unreal.

Oh, and she casually won another Olympic gold medal this summer. Even if you’re just here for the Nike shoes, the resume speaks for itself.

The WNBA Keeps Climbing

More than anything, A’ja’s extension is another win for the WNBA. The league has been steadily proving it’s a force to be reckoned with and moves like this show it’s only getting bigger. With players like A’ja leading the charge, the WNBA isn’t just growing—it’s thriving.

A’ja Wilson getting a deal this big is a reminder that the best will always get theirs. And when her signature shoe, the A’One, drops next spring, it should be added to everyone’s carts.
