Seems like there is no stopping the Aces’ ladies. After winning consecutive WNBA champion titles, Kelsey Plum makes another huge move right before her threepeat tournament gets intense. Joining hands with the Kingmakers, she has converted her hobby into a money-making machine. As she enters the $53.64 billion industry this summer, which was once Michael Jordan‘s wife Yvette Prieto’s league, her fellow hooper Stephen Curry cannot help but rejoice at the grand step.
Taking it to her official Instagram account, Kelsey Plum announced to the world that her Cigars are finally out for pre-orders. She posted a slide of photos with the people she loves the most, enjoying her Cigar at what seems to be a private party. She captioned the post, “Celebrate the wins in life with those who are there every step of the way. Really my own cigar ….Yesterday was a dream, I’m floating 😌❤️🤞🏼💨💨 Link to buy is in bio, enjoy 🔥”
The entire Las Vegas crew was also part of this leisure time and Stephen Curry joined the chat through the comments. Congratulating the 2x WNBA All-Star, the Golden State Warriors superstar commented on the post, “Big time moves!!”
Another connection that the basketball world and Cigars have is legendary, quite literally. Michael Jordan had uncovered the fact to Holt’s Clubhouse that his first Cigar was after the Chicago Bulls won their first NBA championship in 1991. In 1993, he made it a tradition to smoke a cigar while traveling to the home games. According to him, he said, “I wanted that feeling of success, and relaxation. It’s the most relaxing thing.” But his wife Yvette Prieto, who is Cuban, was part of the industry a long time back. Her father owns the CLE Prieto which is a broadleaf handmade cigar of Nicaragua origin. So, what is Plum’s cigar like?

Undeniably, this power move by the All-Star guard is quite rare. Her Cigar, which uses a wrapper of undisclosed origins from Connecticut, is a 6 x 52 toro. Any information on the binder and filter is also not available yet. However, when you talk about its blend, we have some information. Boasting the blend enriched with the aroma of almonds and toasted nuts, the cigar has notes that end with bold peppercorns. The Kingmakers Cigars also say that it has subtle sweetness and creaminess that meet the smoker with every puff.
They have also defined the cigars as, “A celebration of finesse and focus, offering a refined experience that lingers long after the final puff.” Connecting the taste with Kelsey Plum, the Kingmakers Cigars described the taste as, “A blend as audacious and refined as KP herself.” The cigars are in line to be released in the markets from June 10, 2024. Moreover, the fans can also pre-order them through Plum’s link. Each box of 10 cigars can cost you $175 as per information available at Half Wheel.
