Flau’Jae’s glam was also giving. She wore her hair long and sleek with a soft beat and purple eye makeup that made her eyes pop.

She told Vogue magazine on the orange carpet she wanted “do something different.”

“I don’t try to fit in,” Flau’Jae continued. “So that style and that confidence is what I display on the court.”

Flau’Jae was drafted No. 8 overall by the Golden State Valkyries, then traded to the Seattle Storm soon after.

Later, the former UConn star switched into a retro-inspired halter gown in brown, cream, and red tones for another fashion moment. Her hair and makeup stayed soft and pretty. She wore wavy tresses and a glam beat with smoky eyes.

Azzi heads to the Dallas Wings.
