Delta Air Lines has launched an original content series titled "Power Forward," featuring WNBA stars Nneka Ogwumike, Breanna Stewart, and Cameron Brink. The series is now available for viewing on Delta's seatback screens across its fleet, excluding Boeing 717 aircraft and Delta Connections-operated regional aircraft.

The series provides an in-depth look at the basketball journeys of these athletes, highlighting their beginnings, current challenges in women's sports, and future aspirations. Alicia Tillman, Delta’s Chief Marketing Officer, stated that the collaboration with the WNBA reflects Delta’s commitment to storytelling. "These three women go beyond their roles as elite athletes — they are redefining what leadership looks like and opening doors for future generations, both on and off the court," she said.

"Power Forward" includes three episodes with archival footage and interviews that showcase pivotal moments in each player's life. An exclusive premiere event was held in New York City with a panel discussion co-hosted by The Female Quotient. The panel featured Chiney Ogwumike as moderator alongside Breanna Stewart, Colie Edison from the WNBA, and Alicia Tillman.
