A’ja’s charismatic impact has finally paid off, as she is now a member of ‘2024 TIME 100’. Fighting her demons, the Dear Black Girls author inspires everyone as she walks on her path. Honoring her off-the-court magnetism, Tom Brady, as a part of the Las Vegas Aces, has written an inspiring testimonial dedicated to A’ja Wilson’s towering success.

Brady described A’ja as a compassionate human being who not only understands the struggles people face but also takes a stand to uphold kindness for all. “Off the court, A’ja’s leadership shines just as brightly. Her foundation supports children and families who struggle with dyslexia, a cause close to her heart. A’ja is also an advocate against bullying, using her platform to spread awareness and promote kindness. She’s a role model for athletes and individuals of all ages around the world,” he claimed.

Through her foundation, A’ja serves as a resource for children and people suffering from dyslexia, helping them through educational programming, camps, and workshops. Battling dyslexia herself, A’ja has also been through learning disabilities, so it is only usual for her to feel the pain and difficulties of children who have been diagnosed with the condition.

Praising Wilson’s dedication to winning two consecutive championship titles, Brady shared, “A’ja’s determination and drive for excellence are the forces behind her team’s consistent victories. Her championship mentality not only secures her place in sports history but also cements her legacy of greatness that extends far beyond the realm of sports. And the best part is, she’s just getting started. She continues to push boundaries and inspire others with her remarkable journey.”

“A’ja Wilson is not just a champion; she is a symbol of resilience, compassion, and unwavering dedication. Her story is a reminder that, with passion and fearlessness, anyone can achieve greatness. I know she has so much more she wants to achieve … and I get to be in a front-row seat watching and admiring!” he further added, concluding the entry and expressing his awe-struck feeling of having such a distinguished athlete working alongside him.

A’ja’s astounding accolades

Needless to say, with such a touching tribute by Tom Brady himself, it was necessary to mention what the past two years have been like for her. Gifted with basketball genes from her parents, A’ja kept the fire alive and aimed to win big things in life. As a member of the WNBA team, the Las Vegas Aces, she won 2 back-to-back WNBA titles in 2022 and 2023, along with earning the 2023 WNBA MVP honors.

At the moment, her foundation is doing wonders in uplifting the societal taboos related to dyslexia and helping children transform the condition into one of their greatest strengths. Moreover, her book release in the off-season reveals volumes of her yet-to-be-explored potential.
