The WNBA offseason may be in full swing, but A’ja Wilson is ensuring her name remains firmly in the headlines—not just for her MVP-worthy court dominance, but for some eyebrow-raising social media antics. While the New York Liberty continues to bask in the glow of their first WNBA championship, Wilson is busy giving fans a different kind of content to dissect.
This week, Wilson posted a series of photos on Instagram that ignited a frenzy of curiosity and conspiracy theories. The carousel showcased her fashion game on point, but it was her caption and accessories that truly sent the internet into overdrive. Sporting a hat emblazoned with the words, “put it on my boyfriend’s tab,” and coyly captioning the post “check pls,” Wilson managed to set the rumor mill ablaze with one click of the “Share” button.
Fans were quick to speculate: is she subtly confirming those long-standing whispers about a potential romance with Miami Heat star Bam Adebayo? Wilson, ever the maestro of suspense, has neither confirmed nor denied the rumors, leaving fans to connect the dots—and connect them they have.
Angel Reese Joins the Chat
Enter Angel Reese, the Chicago Sky’s rising star and a rookie sensation in the league. Reese, never one to shy away from stirring the pot, added fuel to the fire with a cheeky comment on Wilson’s post: “Sis, where can I find this hat?”
Cue the collective gasp from WNBA Twitter. Is Reese dropping hints about her own love life? Fans, always ready to play detective, couldn’t help but wonder if she, too, has a mystery boyfriend in the wings. Reese’s love life has been relatively quiet since her March breakup with Cam Fletcher, a former college basketball standout. She’s previously said she’s not actively dating, but hey, life has a way of surprising us all.
A’ja, Bam, and the Art of Staying Mysterious
The Bam Adebayo-A’ja Wilson dating rumors first surfaced in the summer, and while they’ve been the talk of both WNBA and NBA fandoms, neither party has given the internet the satisfaction of an official confirmation. Wilson’s latest Instagram antics feel like a masterclass in keeping the masses guessing, and fans can’t seem to get enough.
Whether or not A’ja Wilson is dating Bam, one thing is certain: she knows how to work an offseason. Between winning MVP honors and dominating the fashion/social media crossover game, Wilson continues to set an example both on and off the court.
As for Reese, her playful comment is a reminder that even the league’s brightest stars aren’t above a little Instagram trolling. And while we’re here, can someone please get Angel Reese that hat? Or better yet, her own boyfriend-worthy tagline?
In the meantime, fans can keep speculating, Wilson can keep dodging questions, and the WNBA offseason can keep giving us all the drama we didn’t know we needed.
