WNBA’s A’ja Wilson Lands Huge Marketing Deal After Caitlin Clark/Nike Controversy

WNBA’s A’ja Wilson has landed a major marketing deal weeks after being at the center of controversy.

Two weeks ago, it was reported that Caitlin Clark would be signing a massive deal with Nike to start a signature shoe line, which led to people like Jemele Hill asking why Wilson hadn’t received a similar deal.

‘I didn’t say any of these players didn’t deserve their own shoe,’ said Hill ‘I’m just surprised arguably the best player in the WNBA — a best-selling author and someone Time put on their 100-most influential list — doesn’t have her own shoe.’

It appears that Gatorade agrees with Hill’s sentiment about Wilson.

On Tuesday, it was reported  that Wilson had signed a multi-year deal with Gatorade and would be the focus of an upcoming marketing campaign for the company.

Fans celebrated Wilson’s new deal on social media.
