Why Texas women’s basketball players love A’ja Wilson’s signature A’One shoe

by

TAMPA, Fla. – Shay Holle didn’t expect to meet A’ja Wilson when Texas women’s basketball went to the Las Vegas Aces star’s pop-up for her new Nike signature shoe, the A’One, on Wednesday.

When the Longhorns arrived, they watched a video of Wilson congratulating them on making it to the Final Four. The Gamecocks legend even wished them good luck in their matchup against South Carolina.

As Nike representatives apologized that Wilson couldn’t be there, Wilson’s voice came in through the speakers – then she walked in from the back of the room.

“We’re all like, ‘Oh my gosh’ – we were already freaking out just about getting the shoes and getting to see the whole thing,” Holle said Thursday during a media day ahead of the women’s NCAA Tournament Final Four. “We are very, very grateful for A’ja and Nike for just allowing us to do that and making it work in our tight schedule. It was really fun.”
