A'ja Wilson is a two-time WNBA champion, two-time WNBA MVP, and two-time WNBA Defensive Player of the Year. The Las Vegas Aces star is well on her way to winning a third league MVP award as the Aces look to complete a three-peat.

But despite all of her success in the WNBA, there's something else she holds close to her heart.

Wilson is a member of the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority.

During the Aces' latest outing against the Atlanta Dream on Friday night, A'ja proudly represented her sorority with her newest AKA-inspired Nike LeBron 21 PE.

The PE (Player Exclusive) came in a black, salmon pink, and apple green colorway. Those, of course, are the AKA colors.
