BREANNA STEWART: STEW YORK
Stewie is quite simply the best player in the world. At 6-foot-4 she can play like she’s the best 3 in the league with elite 3-point shooting and agility, and she can also hang inside like a 4. Her signing with the Liberty in free agency stands as some of the biggest news in WNBA history. It’s Stewie’s city now: Stew York.

LAS VEGAS: A’JA & CANDACE & KELSEY & CHELSEA & ALYSHA
The Las Vegas Aces have created a super team with A’ja Wilson, Candace Parker, Kelsey Plum, Chelsea Gray and Alysha Clark.
- A’ja: 2022 and 2020 MVP, 2022 Defensive Player of the Year, 2018 Rookie of the Year, 2x All-WNBA First Team, 2x All-Defensive, 4x All-Star (including 2022)
- Candace: 2013 and 2008 MVP, 2016 Finals MVP, 2020 Defensive Player of the Year, 2008 Rookie of the Year, 7x All-WNBA First Team, 2x All-Defensive, 7x All-Star (including 2022)

WILSON, PARKER AND STEWIE CARICATURES
This WNBA free agency period was a big one. Breanna Stewart, who is widely considered to be the best player in the world, is taking her talents from Seattle to New York, as she has joined the Liberty. But A’ja Wilson’s actually got Stewie beat in number of MVP awards. Is she in fact the best player in the world? You can get a caricature shirt of either Stewie or A’ja now at BreakingT!
Wilson’s Las Vegas Aces won the WNBA championship in 2022, but they weren’t content with keeping the same roster. Like the Liberty, they made a big splash in free agency, bringing in two-time MVP Candace Parker! Parker and Wilson on the same team should be loads of fun both on the court and off, given their personalities.
It’s hard to say Candace Parker and A’ja Wilson are THE two biggest icons in WBB culture, but they are probably the two biggest of their ilk: socially aware, bold and unapologetic. Wilson is the heir to Parker’s throne in the arena of being those things.
