“It's unbelievable, it's so well-deserved,” Parker said. “A'ja has dominated for so long. I'm excited to see what the cover looks like… A'ja, I'm so proud of you. It's amazing to see what you're doing on and off the court. I can't wait to get my own cover.”
Parker's kind words left Wilson with a big smile on her face. Wilson is arguably the best player in the WNBA right now, but it was likely still a special moment to hear such a heartfelt message from a legend like Parker.
“Thanks Candace,” Wilson said. “Candace is my dog. I'm so grateful to share the court with her. So this is truly a special moment.”
