I can’t lie, these past 48hrs has been tough for me. I’ve cried, blamed myself and cried some more trying to make sense of everything. But I know I’m built for the challenge and this will only make me stronger. Minor setback for a major comeback! 😤
Beginning of this year, I was playing in Turkey and there was a bball tourney going on before our practice. I noticed this young girl didn’t have proper ball kicks and told our team manager I wanted to buy her some new shoes.
Had a follow up with my surgeon today and he cleared me to start running/jumping! And for those inquiring, YES I should be ready in time for the start of the season!! 😬 One day at a time.

Back in 2019 after watching Shey Peddy play for her Euro team I tweeted that I thought she should make a
#WNBA
roster. She messaged me and told me the tweet helped motivate her.
@SheyP11
belonged in this league, there was no doubt about it. NOW SHE’S GOING TO THE FINALS! ❤️
Today is the first day since my injury I’m home alone and no longer need someone to take care of me. It’s been 22 days! I’m so hyped y’all 🤗

In 2003, DT was my coach at an UCONN basketball camp. 20yrs later, I got to witness her legendary history moment as her teammate. 10,000pts is insane, but to drop a 42 piece on top of that is iconic!

Last year, I wore BG’s jersey in support of bringing her back home. This year, she signed that same jersey in her first All-Star game back 🥹 Proud of you big dawg!
I’m not tryna brag or anything (definitely bragging lol), but I met Chris Paul today and he knew my name 😬. Plus, I got the opportunity to get his advice on some in-game scenarios. Super dope moment! I’m still cheesing 😂
After the game, I got her information and told her to send me whatever shoe she wanted. A few days later I got this picture and all I could do was smile. This was hands down my proudest moment of 2022 🙌🏾
Today was really a dream come true for me! After all these years, I’m blessed to say I played in my first official
@WNBA
game. Patience is a virtue 🙏🏾🏀
Walked into CVS and one of the employees goes, “You’re Peddy right? I was just playing with you today in 2K.” All I could do was smile. The fact that I’m really in a video game is super dope. 😊
After nearly 1.5yrs of rehabbing my achilles and having to deal with not only the physical aspect but the mental part as well, I’m BEYOND excited to finally return to the court again. 2023 was a disaster but 2024 is already looking up! 🙏🏾
I got cleared a month ago for court workouts and it’s been so therapeutic to pick up a ball again. Been working on range of motion, getting up on my toes and getting comfortable pushing off with my right foot again. Still not able to run, jog or hop, but we moving!

Something as small as me being upset that the leading scorer was wearing kicks that she could roll her ankles in, led to me finding out her family was extremely grateful because they couldn’t afford to buy her new shoes. Glad I was able to help them out 🙏🏾
Had a dream last night I got offered 3 endorsement deals, so I figured I’d put it in the air and let the universe do its thing.
@PUMA
@Nike
@Jumpman23
@Converse

which one of y’all want to be my first deal? 😬

Today I signed one kids Jordan 11 Cherry’s and another wanted her shoe signed.. then came back a few seconds later asking if the marker will come off lol. They were given a basketball, jersey and bag but chose their shoes. To all the parents, I apologize 😂
I feel like this year is the most I’ve seen women ballers get their jersey retired, whether it be college or high school, and I’m all for it! I love to see these women get the recognition they deserve!
Jaylen Brown says he’s looking for a shoe company that matches his brand and his interests. Brown was previously with Adidas but is now a shoe free agent.
“I’m looking for the brand of the future, not the brand of the past.”
I’ve been told I was too small or not good enough to compete with the top players. But I stayed the course and continued to play my game. First year playing in
#EuroLeaguewomen
and I’m nominated for league MVP and PG of the year. Proud of what I’ve accomplished this year. 💯
It’s sad to see how hateful and ignorant people have been over BG’s release today. But let me save y’all some time and unnecessary energy. Regardless of what you think, BG IS HOME😊
Introducing: Peddy Views! Behind the scenes footage of the Phoenix Mercury during this season from my lens. This will be entertaining to say the least lol😬 Stay Tuned..
Welcome to London, Shey! ✍️🦁

We’re thrilled to announce the signing of American guard, Shey Peddy! 🇺🇸

Lol the fact that some ppl think I’m “hating” on a team for being treated how professional athletes SHOULD be treated is hilarious. You really think players rather check each other’s tickets and not fly private? And I thought I was the petty one 🥴😂
1. I feel it’s that time of year when I really need to spell out how incredible the Shey Peddy story is for everyone again. This is going to be a long thread, so hang tight.
I encourage everyone to write your Representatives, sign the petition, post on social media and use every opportunity to bring attention to Brittney Griner’s case. Visit to learn more

I think it’s disrespectful to have the camera on Gray injured in the back hallway. Let the team provide an update when they can. No need to be that intrusive.
And to answer some frequently asked questions:
1. No I’m not retired lol
2. No I am no longer injured
3. Yes I am still celebrating my Celtics championship 😂
