graces the 2014

issue, the magazine’s 50th edition, photographed by

Though modeling swimsuits may be new to the 23-year-old
Tulsa Shock
guard, the 5′ 9” beauty seemed to be in her element, basking on the sun-drenched beach.
“I think I really just wanted to get in and try to get comfortable. And as the shoot went along, I got more and more comfortable and I think that really helped me get some great shots.”
The All-American point guard for
Notre Dame
and
Roc Nation Sports
‘ first female athlete is becoming one of the
WNBA
‘s most marketed players, with endorsement deals with
Nike
and
Sprint
, and a forthcoming deal with a chocolate milk drink.

As the queen of #
HeadbandNation
, Skylar launched her trademark headbands with Nike earlier this year, and she’ll star in a 15-minute Nike+ Training Club app workout, which will release in early April.
“Exercise is something that all women can do. It’s something that can help them stay active and fit. Whether they are getting started or exercise all the time, it doesn’t matter. It’s about leading a healthy, fit lifestyle and hopefully this App will help them do.”
Skylar has made it clear that she’s working harder than ever to improve Tulsa’s season this year, spending hours in the gym each day.
We’ll see how it pays off when they play their first game on
Saturday, May 17th at 7:00pm
vs San Antonio.
