This isn’t the first time that Wilson put on the SLAM cover featuring the current head coach of the South Carolina Gamecocks women’s basketball team, Staley. In their last game against the Minnesota Lynx, the star center showed up wearing a white version of the shirt. The cover wasn’t released at the time, but it had already been teased to the fans.

She led Las Vegas to a win that night with a monster performance of 29 points and 15 rebounds.
