The collection of styles were inspired by player feedback and league insights.
WNBA star Sue Bird told ESPN.com that the hype surrounding the new jerseys is great for the league. “With leaks comes conversation, comes storylines, comes chatter, and I think that’s good for growth,” Bird said. “When something gets leaked, there’s an asterisk of importance. And it’s kind of cool to have a conversation around a WNBA jersey feeling that way.
