Meet The 11 Fierce Black Women Headed To The Tokyo Olympics
24-year-old Las Vegas Aces player A’ja Wilson will be joining the women’s U.S. basketball team. The South Carolina native secured a spot on the roster alongside WNBA greats, Sue Bird and Diana Taurasi. During her time at her alma mater, the University of South Carolina, Wilson was a three-time southeastern conference (SEC) Player of the Year.
After receiving an honorary statue for her legendary collegiate career earlier this year, Wilson said the moment was “bigger” than her.
“Thank you for taking a chance on this wide-eyed Black girl,” she said, the USC reported. “To every girl, especially every Black girl, remember you can do anything that you put your mind to. Have faith. Work hard.”
When she’s not shooting hoops, Wilson likes to collect jewelry, to pay homage to her grandmother Hattie Rakes.
