Rumors about her dating life have been swirling since last month, and her recent appearance in Miami has fueled speculation about a romance with NBA star Bam Adebayo. To add fuel to the fire, Wilson’s teammates have now joined the buzz.

The drama didn’t stop there, as once Colson’s tweet drew attention, another Aces player couldn’t resist joining in on the fun. Chelsea Gray, who not only teammates with Wilson on the Aces but also played alongside her for Team USA in Paris, jumped in with a playful comment. “I’m weakkk 😂😂😂,” Gray wrote, adding her own touch of humor to the growing buzz.

While Aces teammates were later to chime in, earlier Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava didn’t miss a chance to highlight the rumored couple. During the ceremony honoring Adebayo, Cava mentioned, “Yeah, A’ja Wilson, and she won gold in women’s basketball. I guess that’s got something to do with Bam and the Heat, right? Being here today.” The camera then zoomed in on Wilson, who responded with a laugh and a playful shrug. However, this is not the first time Wilson and Adebayo have been into gossip.

A’ja Wilson and Bam Adebayo’s growing buzz since the victory at Paris

A’ja Wilson and Bam Adebayo, both gold medalists with Team USA at the Paris Olympics, sparked dating rumors shortly after their win. As Team USA clinched their eighth consecutive gold, Adebayo was the first to congratulate Wilson. He made a beeline for her courtside, where they shared a special handshake before Wilson turned her attention to LeBron James and his family.

Although they were first seen together in Las Vegas in July—an outing that seemed like a date—it was their time in Paris that really put them in the spotlight. During the Paris Olympics, their appearances together captured attention, and they were later spotted strolling the streets of Paris, shopping side by side.

The excitement surrounding A’ja Wilson and Bam Adebayo only intensifies with each public appearance. Their evident chemistry, combined with playful interactions and comments from Aces players, hints at a relationship beyond mere friendship, keeping fans and media on their toes. While Wilson’s primary focus remains on securing a three-peat with the Las Vegas Aces, she still finds time for her rumored boyfriend.
