Skylar Diggins is making headlines for her magazine shoot in Sports Illustrated's 50th anniversary.

The 23-year-old Tusla Shock basketball star posed for the sexy pics, which was shot in the British Virgin Islands. She shows off her toned body in a blue Tory Burch Bikini. In one image, she stands on the sand under the tree looking gorgeous while wearing minimal makeup.

Diggins recently tweeted a pic of her holding up her magazine spread with the caption, "Surreal," also sharing a few other shots with the hashtag "#Swim50."

Her latest spread has caught the attention of many celebrities, including rapper Drake, who recently took to Instagram to upload a pic of the Notre Dame alumna.

"Amen," he captioned the photo of Diggins smiling.

Drake and Diggins both attended NBA's All-Star weekend in New Orleans.

Though the gesture may have seemed flattering to fans and even Diggins, herself, she is currently in a relationship with Daniel Smith, who plays football for Notre Dame.

Smith recently Instagrammed a picture of Diggins, captioned by, "My lady is beautiful and the world can't help but notice. Wouldn't have it any other way!"

In the past rapper Lil Wayne tweeted about Diggins and released a video back in 2011 where he talked about the basketball player. At the minute mark in the video below, Wayne stated: "I'm in Indiana, looking for Skylar Diggins."

Last April 2013, Jay Z signed Diggins to his Roc Nations Sports agency. She was the third player picked overall in the 2013 WNBA Draft.
