Las Vegas Aces' star Kelsey Plum has enjoyed quite the season. She was named the 2022 WNBA All-Star Game MVP and followed that up with a contract extension with the Aces. She is turning into one of the brightest stars in the WNBA. And the sports world is taking notice. Tom Brady sent her a gift that drew quite the reaction from Plum.

Brady's gift included multiple different items including a signed jersey. The jersey included a message that said, “Kelsey, you are amazing. L.F.G. Good luck!”
It was safe to say she was happy about receiving a Tom Brady signed jersey.
Kelsey Plum was selected first overall by the San Antonio Stars (now the Las Vegas Aces) in the 2017 WNBA Draft out of the University of Washington. 2017 NBA first round pick, Markelle Fultz, was also a University of Washington product. It was the first time ever that both the NBA and WNBA first overall picks were selected from the same college.
Plum struggled during her first few years in the league. Her breakout season came in 2021, when she averaged just under 15 points per game.
However, she emerged as a star this season. Plum is averaging just under 20 points on over 41 percent shooting from deep. As aforementioned, she made the All-Star team and ultimately won MVP of the game. And now she is catching the attention of legendary quarterback Tom Brady.
Plum and the Aces are enjoying a superb 2022 campaign. They will aim to keep playing well. Meanwhile, Tom Brady is looking to lead the Buccaneers to the Super Bowl in the upcoming NFL season.
