A’ja Wilson = success. With every passing day, it gets harder to ignore the fact that Wilson is the best women’s basketball player. She became the first star in WNBA or NBA history to win a championship, claim the scoring title, and be named Finals MVP, league MVP, and Defensive Player of the Year in the same season. Now, she’s TIME Magazine’s 2025 Athlete of the Year. If there was ever any narrative bigger than hers, it was that of Caitlin Clark.
Wilson recently addressed the media coverage and toxicity surrounding Clark’s 2024 and 2025 seasons . How did that hit or affect the Aces legend?
“It wasn’t a hit at me, because I’m going to do me regardless,” Wilson said of all the hate Clark and the sport faced. “I’m going to win this MVP. I’ll win a gold medal. Y’all can’t shake my résumé.
