This won’t do much to dispel the A’Ja Wilson-Bam Adebayo dating rumors.
On Wednesday, the star Miami Heat center-forward received the key to Miami-Dade County following last month’s Olympic Games, where he won gold with Team USA men’s basketball.
Wilson, who has recently been linked to Adebayo, took in the festivities honoring South Florida Olympians, which didn’t go unnoticed by Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava, who shouted out the two-time WNBA champion.
“She won gold in women’s basketball,” Levine Cava said of Wilson, who also took home the top prize at the Paris Games. “I guess that has something to do with Bam and the Heat, huh, being here today.”
The cameras then panned to Wilson, 28, who shrugged her shoulders before smiling and laughing.
The clip circulated on social media and elicited a response from Wilson’s Aces teammate, Sydney Colson, who re-posted the video and said: “If I send you this, just know I’m finna tell on you.”
Wilson, a two-time WNBA MVP and champion, later dropped a curious post on X that featured a woman on the “Jerry Springer Show” repeatedly asking “What?”
Fans shipping Wilson and Adebayo, 27, have had their antennae up for some time as the two were photographed together before the Olympics.
They even shared a courtside handshake after the U.S. women’s basketball team defeated France in the gold-medal game.
The defending champion Aces are looking to finish the regular season strong after winning three of their past four games.
They visit the Connecticut Sun on Friday and are currently the No. 4 seed in the standings.
Wilson, a six-time WNBA All-Star, is averaging 27.5 points per game this season, 12.1 rebounds and 2.4 assists and is the favorite to take home another MVP trophy.
Adebayo begins his eighth season, all with the Heat, when Miami hosts the Orlando Magic in their season opener on Thursday, Oct. 23.
