Dwyane Wade, Chris Paul, Carmelo Anthony, Maya Moore?
For the first time in the history of Nike's Jordan brand, a female basketball player will be on the roster, as Nike announced Moore's signing on Wednesday.
"I am thrilled to welcome Maya Moore into the Jordan Brand," wrote Michael Jordan in an official statement from Nike. "Not only has Maya proven to be a prolific winner on the court, but her hunger and determination to make an impact off the court makes her a valuable addition to the Jordan family. We look forward to working with Maya as she carries her success to the next level."
After arguably having the greatest college career in the history of women's college basketball at UConn, Moore was picked first overall by the Minnesota Linx in the 2011 WNBA draft.
According to Slam Online, the move coincides with an attempt by the Jordan brand to appeal to women.
