Sylvia Fowles is among the WNBA’s elite.
The Sky center certainly is when it concerns most popular jerseys. She ranks No. 5 based on sales from October to June at wnbastore.com. Atop the list is top draft pick Maya Moore of the Minnesota Lynx. Former track star Marion Jones, who plays for the Tulsa Shock, debuts at No. 6.
“I think it’s pretty cool that we’re seeing more and more Sky fans out there,” Fowles said. “I’m amazed how many people are wearing my number.”
