About Breanna Stewart
Breanna Mackenzie Stewart, born on August 27, 1994, in Syracuse, New York, is a towering figure in professional women’s basketball, currently playing for the New York Liberty of the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA). Stewart, commonly known as “Stewie,” is celebrated not only for her impressive height of 6 ft 4 in but also for her remarkable skill set that makes her one of the most versatile and dominant players in the league.
Stewart’s basketball prowess was evident early in her career at Cicero-North Syracuse High School, where she earned the nickname "Bean" for her lanky frame and "6-10" for her expansive wingspan. Her high school achievements include leading her team to a state AA public school title and earning accolades such as the National Gatorade Player of the Year. She was also a McDonald's All-American, setting the stage for a stellar collegiate career.
Attending the University of Connecticut (UConn), Stewart had what is often described as the most decorated career in college basketball history, male or female. She led the UConn Huskies to four consecutive national championships, earning the Final Four's most outstanding player award four times—a feat unmatched by any other player in the history of college basketball.
Drafted first overall by the Seattle Storm in the 2016 WNBA Draft, Stewart’s impact on the professional stage was immediate. She earned the WNBA Rookie of the Year award in 2016 and has since amassed multiple WNBA MVP awards and WNBA Championships. Her playing career has also been marked by significant international success, including multiple Olympic and FIBA World Cup gold medals.
Off the court, Stewart is just as impactful. Known for her advocacy for equality and justice, she has been a vocal supporter of the Black Lives Matter movement and an advocate for the LGBTQ community. Her personal story includes overcoming tremendous personal challenges, including surviving childhood sexual abuse, which she bravely disclosed in a poignant essay that helped others speak out. Stewart's journey through adversity has made her a symbol of resilience and strength.
Moreover, Stewart has broken new ground in sports marketing, signing a groundbreaking deal with PUMA, which not only made her the highest-paid female basketball player in terms of endorsements but also gave her a signature shoe—the Stewie 1. This deal is a significant step forward in the recognition and commercialization of women's basketball.
Breanna Stewart not only represents the pinnacle of athletic excellence but also embodies the spirit of leadership and perseverance. Her journey from a high school prodigy to a professional superstar, and her role as a mother and advocate, highlights her multifaceted life, making her an inspiring figure for many across the globe.
