WNBA star DiDi Richards traded her signature black-and-teal Liberty jersey for an itty bitty hot pink bikini. The former shooting guard shared a stunning series of lakeside pics with her 158,000 Instagram followers. She paired the two-piece, featuring a triangle-style top and cheeky, tie-side bottoms, with a matching Barbiecore-inspired bucket hat and white baggy drawstring parachute pants, which she hung super low on her waist.

The 24-year-old showed off her silly side with some quirky poses and flaunted her toned arms and abs. She stood in front of a gorgeous sunset and palm trees off in the distance

“just enjoying God’s creations 🫶🏾,” the Baylor alum captioned the Tuesday carousel. In addition to the gorgeous bikini photos and landscape snaps, Richards included an inspirational quote.

“Doing my best to stay hydrated, set boundaries, love myself, listen to my body, communicate my feelings, and heal,” read the screenshot.

“Love you Deauzya!!” Jennifer Roberts commented.

“Livinnnnnn😍,” Arella Guirantes wrote.

“Still missing you on the court but from your Instagram it looks like life is good. I hope I’m reading that right and wish you all the happiness,” one fan gushed.

“Love this 🔥🔥🔥still miss you on the court! Liberty could still use you,” one fan agreed.

“Pretty girl, pretty 🌎💕,” someone else added.

“you look SO good 🤝🏽💞,” one fan complimented.

Richards made her SI Swimsuit debut last year and was photographed by Laretta Houston in St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands alongside fellow WNBA athletes Breanna Stewart, Sue Bird, Nneka Ogwumike and Te’a Cooper.
