A’ja Wilson dropped one of the biggest flexes of 2024, and we’re not mad.
On Sunday, Wilson was named WNBA MVP, becoming only one of four players ever to win the award three times and just the second in league history to have their selection be unanimous. That’s pretty wild stuff.
In pretty A’ja Wilson fashion, the award was less about her and more about her team. She secretly wrote her Aces teammates thank you letters for the season, sharing them shortly after earning MVP honors. But, she did save just a little bit of limelight for herself. A’ja walked the Aces tunnel ahead of a WNBA playoff matchup with the Seattle Storm holding a very shiny accessory — her MVP trophy.
An a'ccessory fit for an M'VP ✨

Red is such a power color and it’s perfect for the occasion she literally had the greatest W season that the league has seen in its 20+ plus she dominated on both sides of the floor and increased her percentage in almost every single category….she is the bar she is the standard https://t.co/J3zzbgfIZB

Everyone is too busy talking about the rookies on mediocre teams while A'Ja Wilson is out here winning back to back titles and winning unanimous MVP for the THIRD straight season. That's something not even Jordan or LeBron ever did.
Respect the Queen of the WNBA! 🔥 https://t.co/VGtEWE2bZ9
