- Las Vegas Aces Center A'ja Wilson is Boardroom's newest cover star. In this story, she sits with Boardroom's Reporter & Digital Creator, Vinciane Ngomsi for an array for topics including team chemistry and the sacrifices the back-to-back champions have made to create a cohesive environment, her integral relationships with South Carolina Gamecocks Coach Dawn Staley and Aces Head Coach Becky Hammon and how she's laser focused "ring chasing," or plainly, on winning a third championship in a row. Later, A'ja discusses what it'll take for her to become the next GOAT, a 4th place MVP vote that still haunts her and how the city of Las Vegas has rallied around her squad despite only recently becoming a sports city. Wilson also gets candid on the moment the WNBA has found itself in, and the importance of the league being ready to meet the demand and expectations that come with increased exposure. Also, with the Paris Olympics on the horizon, Wilson discusses the hope of carrying the legacy of USA Basketball to a gold medal this summer, her substantial "glow up" that she credits to making her own money and the role that her parents played in her development and success. Lastly, A'ja discusses her marketability and how much she values the companies like AT&T, Ruffles, Gatorade and more who've invested in her greatness throughout her career. She also shares how she values being an 'imperfect person,' and how it brings her closer to her fanbase, her recent bestselling book ‘Dear Black Girls: How to Be True to You’ and expounds on the lasting legacy she hopes to leave with everyone who watches her play.

Talk about what a beautiful woman A'ja is, inside and out. Her personality is the best.🎉 Let's go Aces. Three peat.
I agree whole hearted 👏🏾🥰
She looks freaking GORGEOUS in this interview!! She always looks amazing, but there's like a lightness and glow to her now. I can't wait to watch this team fight their way to a 3-peat!! That back court is crazy...especially once CG gets back in there and joins them (hoping she won't miss too many games to start this season). A'ja, Kiah Stokes, Kelsey Plum, Alysha Clark, Jackie Young, Dyaisha Fair, Kate Martin, etc...that roster is TOUGH!!! 💪🏾🏀
So happy for A’ja! She really put in the work!
It's a little scary if this is just the tip of the iceberg for A'ja... it is such a joy to watch her on the floor
Amazing season last year !Lets’s go I’m here for it 💯
This women been a real one. Top tier always A'ja. 🔥🔥🔥
Amazing interview! A'ja is THE ONE!!!
13:06 she’s cute for that answer!
I enjoyed this spotlight for our multifaceted MVP!
A living legend (collegiate level and professionally).
Proud of A’ja!! The beautiful Queen of the league!
Such a stand up woman. Love all of this. Genuinely at awe with everything about A'ja, still can't believe I met her. So eager to see all that she does. Protect her God!
See how they said "budding goat" regarding A'ja. A'ja has done so much and received so many awards collegiately and professionally. This is realistic. This is why people push back on using the word "goat" so loosely.
We are so proud of you Aja keep going up!!
I love her Spirit and her energy. A'ja Wilson is such a class act on and off the court. I love this interview!!!
A'ja you are perfect to me. Keep being you.
You are truly a inspiration to me and for all young black women
Talk about seeking your truth and mind. This woman is amazing.
Congratulations A’ja! You deserve the world! Go get that ring and show dem yall are THEM! No pressure, just go play.
True definition of being beautiful miss Wilson, love your vibe
Go for the 3peat
oh she is outstanding and she will inspire so many young girls the WNBA is headed in the right direction
Love A’ja! So excited for her and all she will accomplish.
This is a multi-talented young lady!!!! Love the Aces!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great interview!
This interview was amazing.
As Mercury fan and I love BG but Aja is the best big in the WNBA.
Way to go A’ja!! You are an inspiration to many girls and young ladies!! Wishing you nothing but ‘uncommon favor’!!🏀❤️🏀
Aja is a beautiful woman and an amazing player.
I love you A’ja 👏🏽❤️ so proud of you
Love this interview-very inspiring and great to get a female champion prespective on personal growth on and off the court.
This interview is so good! I love seeing the human side of athletes.
Great interview! 👍🏽🏀
She so LIIIIT !!! Queen Of The Game !! Can't wait to see this season with the Aces !! Awesome itw congrats Boardroom
AJ'A WILSON LAS VEGAS ACES TWO TIMES CHAMPION SC TALENT ❤️💯
Wow, amazing story. Wonderful parents.🥲
This was such a good interview! I just love A’ja🤍
The parts about her parents and ESPECIALLY the glow up stage....so relatable and SO REAL!!
So glad I watched this, and can’t wait to see her play!
Shout out to the biggest hater on earth aka the 4th place voter lol. I hope they make her mad again so she can go snatch up another trophy. GO ACES!
Awesome interview!!♠️
You can thank Rebecca Hobo Lobo for their 4th place vote. I will always think that. A'ja will be heralded as a GOAT once it is said and done. I wish some (CC) could have some of the humility A'ja has. She gives props to those around her and understands the work must come as a team (CC could also learn from that).
Wow. CC is catching strays for no reason. CC has been nothing but humble. You have to separate CC from the attitudes of SOME of her fans.
CC is going well out of way her to ingratiate herself to everyone - including all of the players and coaches and LEGENDS that have been attacking her (DT) and even lying on her (Swoopes). Iowa went out of their way to honor Lynette Woodard and she goes and attacks Cc for no reason afterward.
So far, the ONLY person I've seen be gracious and kind toward CC is Dawn Staley..
Congratulations AJA on all your success
You guys see A’ Ja😊she rocks, rock on girl witch your bad self. God definitely gift her you can hear it on how she talks.🙌🏿🙌🏿 and I am not kissing neither😂😂
Love A'ja❤
Great interview

Haters gonna hate. No matter how good you are it's just fuel for the fire.
My daughter and I love A’Ja Wilson. When are you coming to DC?
Go Aces
Queen Rises
A team three peating in this league is much needed right now. I hope they make that happen
Go get your next ring gurl❤
AJA IS THE FUTURE WNBA GOAT SHE ALWAYS COOKING!
A'Ja is my absolute favorite WNBA player of all time. And Caitlin Clark.But this girl has awesome talent.😊
My favorite player ❤❤❤❤❤
Future GOAT 🐐
Hi A'Ja ❤
WOW she got a DEEP VOICE.
True story
🔥🔥🔥
Mya Moore is my goat for now but she my goat going forward
Amazing achievement accomplished accountability Aja Aces
🔥🔥🔥ugh😍
An authentic imperfect flawed mentor relatable
A’ja Wilson is the best player in the WNBA right now! She will be in the Hall of Fame! Keep winning WNBA championships. Greatest is measured by championships! The league MVP is ok. But winning the league championship is more important! Give me championships over a league MVP! Every team goal should be to win championships!
this is the most humble comment
2-1 to start the season and they have shown flashes of how good they will be but still a long season ahead !
She is beautiful, classy and the face of the WNBA!
Luv u aja forever goat period already
What a dropdead gorgeous woman lord she's the wifey type❤
That is one beautiful tall glass of thirst quenching water
Oh Please....
I Do Wish them luck ,I know they will win another championship, all Best for Alll
She my wife in my mind
She stands 2 ft above you no chance
Not marketable-those executives are losing billions for their company; very foolish move on their part in this era of dynamic female stars.
❤❤❤💍💍😍🎤🎤
She’s the Real Barbie She’s da goat a real champion Resse a real knock off
A'ja is on a super team. Offcourse she has 2 championships. If A'ja plays on the Mystics team, dominates and wins a championship I would have respect.
Of course you have reasons why you not giving her the respect that is deserved and earned with championships to back it up.
She look lik Scarface from baddies south in thumbnail
Who?
Tru
Never heard of her.
Yet here you are knowing enough about her to be a hater. 🥴 Bye 🤡
Aja is such a great player and it’s sad she turned so many people off by making that racist remarks about CC. She would have been better off if she gave CC credit and separated herself from all the other bitter women by showing support. But instead just turned herself into just another hater. She had a great game against the fever and the highlight was Kate Martin guarding CC. WNBA is trying to force her on us but the people champ is CC her 8 points were more exciting then Aja’s 30 it’s sad
Great basketball player, void as a person.
She fine she just gotta thin them brows a lil more
Be a better human.
lol I would actually agree
You got to be kidding, she’s awesome.
She aint got to so nothing
Good player. Attractive, ehh not so much really
No one cares what you think.
The victim that cried rascism while she was already in talks with nike...that says all that is needed.
*WNBA needs to change it's schedule from the Summer season to Spring and Fall tournaments 👍 Nobody is going to watch the WNBA while the NBA Playoffs are going on* 👎
Speak for yourself
I'll be watching for sure
Watching the W. ❤
The nba playoffs will end after a month
@@goldeye3901 *a February/March/April tournament would turn a lot more eyes....August/September/October would turn even more* 👌
