A Crown That Stays Put
You know A’ja always keeps it real, and she didn’t disappoint when talking about this insane achievement. She told reporters, “The crown gets heavy. Wearing it gets heavy. It may tilt, it may slip, but my biggest thing is making sure it doesn’t fall,and it doesn’t just necessarily mean the crown falls on me, but it doesn’t fall on anyone that may be wearing it… if you’re going to wear the crown, if you’re going to rock it, you’ve got to have an understanding that its going to get heavy. But it doesn’t mean it’s going to drop. Not on my watch.” That’s the kind of intensity and commitment that earns you five MVPs. She’s not just wearing the crown, she’s owning it.
