Bam Adebayo Celebrates A’ja Wilson Becoming 1st WNBA Player with 1K Points in Season

Las Vegas Aces star A’ja Wilson added another incredible feat to her lengthy list of accolades by becoming the first player in WNBA history to score 1,000 points in a single season, and Miami Heat star Bam Adebayo took to social media to celebrate her.

Adebayo, who has been rumored to be in a relationship with Wilson, not-so-subtle posted a tweet in which he alluded to Wilson’s accomplishment on Sunday:

Wilson appeared to respond to Adebayo’s tweet by posting a gif:

Wilson reached the 1,000-point mark with a jumper in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s 84-71 win over the Connecticut Sun. She had already set the WNBA single-season scoring record earlier this week, and Adebayo also celebrated her that night:

Wilson and Adebayo have leaned into relying on subtle references while keeping their relationship private. When the Aces alluded to Adebayo after Wilson set the scoring record, the two-time WNBA MVP jokingly reacted like she was unamused:

Wilson is trying to lead the Aces to their third straight WNBA championship, so perhaps Adebayo will have more opportunities to celebrate her during the postseason.

Wilson and the Aces will return to action on Tuesday against the Seattle Storm.
