Aziaha James is heading to Dallas as the No. 12 pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft — and she’s bringing her brother’s memory with her. 🥺⁣
•⁣
The Virginia Beach native carries the legacy of her late brother, AJ James, every time she steps on the court. 🫶⁣
•⁣
After AJ tragically passed away at 19 due to an accidental shooting, Aziaha turned heartbreak into fuel — helping lead the Wolfpack to their first Final Four since 1998. 💪⁣
•⁣
A tattoo on her shoulder honors him, but it’s her fire, resilience, and love that keep his spirit alive in every game. 🔥⁣
•⁣
Welcome to the W, Aziaha. 💜 #thegist⁣
