Liz Cambage’s all-Gucci fit, Sami Whitcomb’s NBA Jam spinoff highlight eye-catching WNBA fits
The WNBA season is only a couple of weeks old, but it has provided exceptional basketball. Much like their play on the court, the fashion choices by players off it have turned some heads.
This week’s fashion across the association featured a variety of looks. One star showed love to a fellow hooper by rocking his jersey, and color coordination was at its best from a couple of athletes throughout the week. We even saw a fun twist on a classic basketball video game that deserves some props.
Here’s a look at some of the exceptional wardrobe selections from WNBA players:
Natalie Achonwa, Minnesota Lynx
Achonwa donned a custom letterman jacket that featured her initials and jersey number (11) on the front. The color red and maple leaf on the left sleeve symbolize her Canadian roots, and her alma mater’s logo, Notre Dame, is stitched on the right sleeve.

Liz Cambage, Los Angeles Sparks
Rocking Gucci from head to toe? That’s what Cambage decided on before she took the floor for the Sparks on Tuesday.

Sabrina Ionescu, Sami Whitcomb, and Michaela Onyenwere, New York Liberty
Onyenwere showed her coordination skills ahead of her contest against the Connecticut Sun, rocking a blue outfit with an accent of orange via her handbag and shades.

Second-year star Ionescu came into Tuesday’s matchup against the Connecticut Sun wearing the jersey of Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry. The NBA’s all-time 3-point king became a fan of Ionescu when she played for the Oregon Ducks. Since then, she and Curry have become closer and stay connected through the Bay Area and its youth basketball scene.
“I love having a relationship with [Curry], just being able to remember when I was little, watching him and kind of emulating my game after him, to now being able to call him or text him any time that I need help with something,” Ionescu told ESPN.
Whitcomb’s shirt depicted a WNBA version of the player selection screen from the classic arcade game, NBA Jam. Pictured on the piece were teammates Ionescu and Betnijah Laney.

Ahead of the Wings’ matchup with the Washington Mystics on Tuesday, Ogunbowale’s shirt had Grammy Award-winning artist Janet Jackson pictured on it. Her fit also included some jewelry and a Von Dutch hat.
