A’ja Wilson has already cemented her legacy with a statue outside Colonial Life Arena, a retired jersey, and her own signature sneaker. But her latest honor might be the most playful yet — Wilson now has her own LEGO figure.
Nike first revealed the collaboration with LEGO back in May, announcing Wilson as one of the inaugural athletes involved in the global partnership.
The multi-year deal is “designed to inspire kids everywhere to embrace the joy of active and creative play” and promises “a full collection of products, including LEGO sets and Nike footwear, apparel and accessories.”
The first wave of items hit shelves over the summer, featuring a LEGO-themed Nike Dunk set along with branded sneakers and apparel.
“I have loved playing with LEGO bricks since I was a kid and know that my creativity and play helped me not only in sports but also at school and in life,” Wilson said in a release. “I’m thrilled to be part of this partnership with Nike and the LEGO Group and know we can help to make a positive impact with kids and adults alike.”
This week, the partnership introduced what they’re calling “A’ja’s smallest move yet” — a LEGO minifigure of Wilson, complete with a pink uniform, matching pink A’One sneakers, and her signature leg sleeve. Alongside the figure, the brands are also launching a mini show called Clicked In, though it’s not yet clear if it will feature Wilson herself or her LEGO counterpart, voiced by the star.
For now, it remains unknown whether Wilson’s LEGO figure will be made available to the public — but fans are already buzzing about the one-of-a-kind tribu
