Watch: Jonquel Jones describes designer attire as she rocks Louis Vuitton, Burberry and Gucci for WNBA's orange carpet
WNBA superstar Jonquel Jones brought the heat to the Phoenix Convention Center for the league's All-Star Weekend orange carpet, but not just with her basketball skills. Jones turned heads in a head-to-toe designer look that had fans and the media buzzing.
Jones arrived dripping in luxury, rocking a statement ensemble that combined iconic brands on the WNBA's orange carpet. She sported a chic Louis Vuitton vest, paired flawlessly with patterned Burberry black pants and a Louis Vuitton white shirt. To top it all off, a touch of Gucci platform black shoes brought together the whole outfit.
When asked about the inspiration behind her look and her favorite memory of the All-Star weekend, she said:
"My inspiration was to just go to the store and trying to find something I like and thatI felt would kind of stand out and be a little bit of different of things that I have worn All-Star in the past."
"I would say I think it was 2022 and Allie Quigley won the three-point contest when I was in Connecticut, it was great moment because I knew she wanted to win it, we were kinda celebrate here in the court," Jones added.
Jonquel Jones, a five-time WNBA All-Star and a key player for the New York Liberty, contributed to team's best record in the league at 21-4. She is averaging 15.6 points and 9.2 rebounds per game, which ranks second on both lists for New York.
Jonquel Jones to compete in WNBA All-Star 3-point contest
On July 17, the WNBA announced that Jonquel Jones, the 6-foot-6 center for the New York Liberty, will show her three-point shooting skills at the WNBA Starry 3-Point Contest this Friday. The contest is happening at Footprint Center in Phoenix, Arizona, as part of the exciting WNBA All-Star Weekend.
This isn't Jones' first rodeo with the three-point contest. The former WNBA league MVP in 2021 is competing in the 3-point contest competition for the second time. In fact, back in the 2021 All-Star Weekend, she even came in second place.
This year, Jones will be facing some stiff competition. The field includes sharpshooters like Stefanie Dolson, the league leader in three-point percentage (48.5%), and Kayla McBride, who currently has the most three-pointers made this season.
The WNBA's 3-Point Shooting Contest and Skills Challenge is on ESPN this Friday, July 19th, at 9 pm Eastern Time. This will follow the WNBA All-Star Game, which will be played on July 20th at 8:30 pm Eastern Time. Jonquel Jones and her WNBA teammates will battle Breanna Stewart and Sabrina Ionescu's Team USA.
