WNBA Legend Sheryl Swoopes Triggers A?ja Wilson’s ?Personal? Battle With Breanna Stewart

Sheryl Swoopes advises A’ja Wilson to take Breanna Stewart’s feud personally. The WNBA Finals witnessed a surprising momentum change in Game 3 on Sunday. The New York Liberty rekindled their finals hope, while the Aces were denied their second consecutive crown, which was only one win away. This season’s Finals Five series was greatly anticipated, not because of the “two super teams” of the WNBA but because of the battle between A’ja Wilson and Breanna Stewart following the historic MVP dispute.

A razor-thin margin purposefully gave the most expected MVP award to Breanna Stewart. It disappointed many people since they believed A’ja Wilson was the most deserving contender. Sheryl Swoopes now advises A’ja to shift it into the finals showdown, following the Aces’ defeat in Game 3.

Sheryl Swoopes’ words of advice for A’ja Wilson

Sheryl Swoopes was featured on a recent edition of Gil’s Arena, where she discussed the WNBA’s past, present, and future. During the lively discussion, the focus was transferred to the current WNBA finals. Swoopes, as everyone knows, came out in full support of the Aces.

Following the team’s Game 3 loss, Sheryl revealed snippets of her conversation with A’ja Wilson. As the defending champion, she believes A’ja should keep an aggressive tone from the outset. She also stated that they have already won the championship, and the New York Liberty are only competing for it.

Sheryl also tells A’ja to take things with Breanna personally. “I said, It has to be personal, right? Stewie won MVP, and you were MVP last year. Honestly, it doesn’t sit well with me.” Sheryl believes A’ja should take things personally and channel them into her next game, which will most likely result in another victory.

Will A’ja avenge Breanna in Game 4?

A’ja Wilson’s MVP rejection produced a lot of turmoil, which led to the ignition of the Aces winning the first two games of the Final Five.

Breanna Stewart and her team, on the other hand, elected to give their opponents a taste of their own medicine, emerged victorious with a masterfully crafted defensive strategy.

But, as Sheryl Swoopes correctly stated, it is past time for A’ja Wilson to avenge her MVP rejection and rebuild winning momentum in order to achieve the incredible feat of consecutive championships like the Los Angeles Sparks.
