On a recent appearance on “The Roommates Show” podcast, the hosts had their chance at poking fun at Wilson for her secretive date.
The podcast host, NBA star Jalen Brunson presented a tweet posted by Bam Adebayo in order to tease A’ja Wilson. The latter, all flushed, acted ignorant to the intentions of the former. Brunson pretended to not know the owner of the tweet and wished him blessings. Josh Hart joined in emphasizing that it was Lord’s Day, while the two appreciated the encoder of the tweet. The WNBA MVP all but joined into their joke.
The aforementioned tweet was posted by Adebayo after Wilson became the first player in WNBA history to record 1,000 points in a single season. The tweet read greetings from the former for people to find reasons to smile. In their casual fashion of flirting, the sentence included an apostrophe similar to one in Wilson’s name.
Netizens started speculating that the two were dating after the two were spotted together in Vegas ahead of the 2024 Paris Olympics. Apart from that, the two have been spotted by the fans sneakily hanging out several times. Wilson was also there to support Adebayo when he received the key to the city after winning a gold medal.
