The WNBA logo

[Carnac]

Am I the only one that thinks the WNBA logo was posed for by Kiah Stokes? Every time I see it, I think it’s her.

Same.

 

[Kaizen]

Yes,

 

[Bald Husky]

No, I believe the logo is patterned after Diana.

 

[psconn]

DT I think.

 

[topogigio]

Natasha Cloud, maybe???

 

[Zanzman]

Googled it… they said an early Sue Bird

 

[MSGRET]

I guess it doesn't matter if it's Diana or Kiah, they're both UConn alums.

 

[MinneHusky]

It's not Sue Bird?

 

[TheFarmFan]

Believe it or not, multiple sources actually suggest it's based on a third UConn alum: Sue Bird!

WNBA Logo, symbol, meaning, history, PNG, brand

The WNBA logo has expression and movement, which indicates an active sport. The female energy emanating from the emblem adds a sense of grace

Here's what ESPN had to say about the logo when it was updated in 2019...

WNBA announces 'refresh' of brand, new logo

The WNBA is launching a "refresh" of its brand that will include a new logo design. It will debut this week in conjunction with Wednesday's draft, but the full rollout won't take place until the 2020 season.

I still think it's DT.

 

[HuskylnSC]

I heard it was EDD

 

[RSHERMVIKES]

IMHO it can be either Kiah Stokes or DT!
But then what do I know?
At 75 my mind is floating away!

Hmmm...

I still leaning towards Stokes.

 

[Bald Husky]

I said it before, and I'll say it again. Its Diana. Its obvious that the the person has a bun, and she is the most famous BB player in the history of the WNBA.

 

[UConnHometown]

No doubt that the WNBA did not use Kiah as the model for the logo.... but I 100% always see Kiah when I look at the logo.

 

[EricSD]

I'm actually stunned that anyone on here would, with a straight and serious face, say they aren't sure if it's Diana or not. The all time GOAT by a wide margin with accolades out the wazoo.

I guess it's like looking at a cloud - you can see what you want to see in your imagination, but I can tell you with 100% certainty that the logo is Diana. And kudos to the WNBA for honoring her that way!

 

[Forego]

I don’t remember ever seeing Sue Bird wear her hair in a bun. Of course, I haven’t seen her senior prom pictures.

This never occurred to me (Stokes).
And now, every time I see the logo, it is the only thing occurring to me!!!
