Chicago Sky guard Dana Evans poses with her new Jordan Luka 2 player edition shoes, “The Intro,” at the team's practice gym Thursday, Sept. 7, 2023, in Deerfield. New York Liberty star Sabrina Ionescu’s signature shoe, the Nike Sabrina 1, was released earlier this month. Washington Mystics forward Elena Delle Donne is the only other current female athlete to have a signature sneaker with the brand.It’s a move Gregory Jones II of G2 Hoops, Evans’ marketing agent, says will have an impact on the league for years to come.
Chicago Sky guard Dana Evans’ new shoes feature several shades of pink as well as three shades of blue. On the insole is a cougar head, an homage to the nickname of Gary West Side, where Evans played in high school. She sits in the top five in scoring in Indiana High School Athletic Association history and was a McDonald’s and Jordan Brand All-American with the Cougars before playing at Louisville.“Coming from a school in Gary where a lot of people said I wouldn’t make it, a lot of people would talk down on it and say I wouldn’t be able to do it,” she explained.
