Las Vegas Won't Be Hiding Its Ace in the Hole

Even though her college days are over, A'ja Wilson is just getting started.

The most decorated player in South Carolina’s history just added another accolade to her long list of awards by being selected No 1 overall in this year's WNBA draft.

She'll be dealing for the Las Vegas Aces.

What’s better than her game?


It's probably her confident, cool, laid back style.

Wilson's approachability and ability to relate to others are definitely her main assets. She can be elegant with her signature pearls and studs or rocking and shaking to Crime Mob's Knuck if You Buck.

It’s not often you find someone in whom everyone can see a little bit of themselves.

 

Besides the swag, what makes her special?

I can give you a laundry list of talented players in WNBA. What’s been missing is magnetic personality, one that will cross over from the hardwood to Hollywood.

Wilson may have just the charisma and pizazz to take the league mainstream.

 

Wilson sees the potential for growth and is willing to accept that she's a role model. She never shys away from the responsibility that comes with her newfound fame.

So, even before her professional career begins, she literally holds all the cards, not just the Aces.
