WNBA fans cannot stop praising A’ja Wilson for her success. It’s safe to say that the Aces would not have won their championship this year without Wilson. She had a spectacular season, helping the team to reach their glory.
Wilson crossed several milestones throughout the season and she continues to live up to all the hype. Yet, even Wilson credits her boyfriend Bam Adebayo for helping her out. Recently, a post from an X account went viral about Adebayo guarding Wilson in her workouts.
“A’ja Wilson says she has to remind Bam to “act like a WNBA player” when he guards her in workouts A’ja: I’m like, no one in our league can do that.. I get mad at times and I’m like ok, now be a WNBA, don’t do that.” Bam: She fails to mention I block that sh*t into the 2nd row,” the post read.
