Gabby Williams (Golden State Valkyries), a star in the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA), revealed the special sponsorship benefits she receives from the global sports brand Jordan.

The U.S. basketball-focused outlet Basketball Network reported on the 15th (Korean time) that "Williams disclosed the perks she enjoys as a Jordan Brand athlete."

According to the report, Williams appeared on 'Club 520 Podcast,' hosted by NBA alumnus Jeff Teague, and spoke about her sponsorship contract with the Jordan Brand.

The benefits were substantial. When asked if she receives a large quantity of products, Williams replied, "Honestly, yes. What I am wearing right now is something I have never worn before."

She then laughed, adding, "Honestly, it seems like there is no need to wear the same outfit twice."

Generally, athletes who sign sponsorship contracts with sports brands receive support for various products such as shoes and clothing. However, the article explained that the benefits provided by the Jordan Brand to some sponsored athletes are even more special.

The Jordan Brand sends an 'Elite Package' to its sponsored athletes every month.

Williams stated, "Compared to any other brand I have worked with, Jordan sends us an Elite Package every month," and explained, "We can also receive products that will be released in the future in advance."

She added, "They make sure we always look stylish."

It is not just new clothing and shoes. Williams is also provided with separately produced player-exclusive shoes. These are so-called 'PE (Player Exclusive) products.' Unlike generally sold items, PE models refer to versions specially crafted for specific athletes in terms of color, design, and other aspects.

Williams has worn PE versions of various models over time, including the Jordan Luka 4 and Jordan Tatum 2, and recently the Jordan Hair.

She said, "The Jordan Brand made a PE for me, and I really liked it," adding, "Sometimes I wear my PEs so much that I get tired of them. So I try to alternate between several products."

Williams is one of the stars representing the WNBA. She has already been selected for the All-Star team and the All-Defensive Team twice.

In her first season with Golden State, she recorded an average of 14.4 points in the regular season, ranking first in scoring within the team. Golden State also finished second in the entire league with a record of 32 wins and 12 losses.

She performed even more intensely in the playoffs. Led by Williams' performance, Golden State reached the WNBA Finals stage just in their second season since founding.

Williams and Golden State will face off against the Atlanta Dream for the championship in the Finals series.
