Thought female basketball players don’t get much attention here, there was an era when the WNBA had some true greats playing the game. While pros like Lisa Leslie, Rebecca Lobo, and Cheryl Swoopes were left with the responsibility to build the league from the ground up, it was the crop of upcoming young stars that would preserve the increasing popularity of the dally while serving as marketing icons. Chamique Holdsclaw had it all; athwart with the necessary skills to excel at the highest level, Holdsclaw had the winning pedigree (3 NCAA titles), the look, and the energy to be the face of the league for years to come. As a Nike athlete, she was issued these Nike Air Flightposite One PEs for the 2000 Olympics, although she never got to play because of injury. A full shot of this rare Player Exclusive is just below, so take a look and let us know if you’d like Nike to bring back more colorways of this classic Posite sneaker.
