- WNBA. Could Caitlin Clark have played for Team USA 3x3 at the Olympics? The complicated answer
- WNBA. Angel Reese posts strong message about her eagerness for WNBA return during Olympic break
The WNBA is in a fantastic place at the moment. Arguably, the league has the most overall pure talent that has ever graced it. The influx of young stars like Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese and more have put the WNBA in a great position.
But while the younger players get their bearings, veterans like A'ja Wilson and Breanna Stewart continue to shine and forge legendary paths in their own shoes; quite literally. Wilson, in particular, is set to have her own signature shoe debut in 2025, dubbed the "A'One". Stewart got one with Puma in 2022.
A'ja Wilson to get signature Nike slide in 2025
While Clark will eventually get a shoe with Nike and Reese will likely do so with Reebok, Wilson might have something over them for now: a signature slide.
The Nike Calm Slide is a classic, but Wilson will get to put a personal touch on her own version. It's expected to feature three different shades of pink and "solar" red.
It's quite rare to see an athlete get signature slides; the signature line is generally reserved for shoes and clothing, but an eye-popping slide could really sell well when attached to Wilson's influence.
