Love Nneka! She's so confident yet humble and looks great! It's always interesting to hear about athletes who don't like to lift are still able to keep things in tip top shape!
Ohh, this is the understatement of the year: My reflexes are amazing. One of my mantras that I always tell my guards is "any pass that I can catch is a good pass." She literally can catch anything!! No disrespect to Gary Payton but "The Glove" is truly fitting nickname for her! GO SPARKS!

Which demonstrates exactly how ridiculous society's obsession with the female nipple is. If the nipple is what is doing it for someone in that picture, I don't know what to tell them...

Perhaps, but if you don't think that photo was chosen by SI on purpose to try to sell more magazines. . . .
How much free publicity are they generating on social media? How many thousand photos did they have to choose from?

It was most likely chosen by ESPN rather than SI
I tend to think it was accidental. Showing things that the athlete doesn't want shown without permission is a sure way to dissuade prospective models from participating in future issues. It would not be surprising if Ogwumike's contract with ESPN for the shoot specified that this sort of thing was unacceptable.

You're right, sorry. Easy to forget ESPN the Magazine exists. Even for someone who gets it in the mail monthly.
Same point. I doubt it was accidental.
