We’re still several months away from the 2025 WNBA season, giving the New York Liberty plenty of time to continue celebrating the first title in franchise history. It also gives A’ja Wilson plenty of time to revel in her never-ending list of accomplishments. Once again, Wilson was named WNBA MVP following an outstanding season in which she dominated everyone. Wilson is setting an important example for the younger players, and that includes Angel Reese.

Reese followed up an impressive collegiate career with an All-Star Game nod in her rookie season. As she performs well on the court, she has used her fame to expand her brand in the media space with a new podcast. She uses her platform to try to uplift fellow women and talk about her life in and out of sports.

But on Tuesday, it was Wilson who drew headlines. She posted a carousel of photos on Instagram that got everyone talking. Her outfit was the main talking point. She captioned the post “check pls”, while wearing a hat that reads “put it on my boyfriend’s tab”.

Are A’ja Wilson and Bam Adebayo dating?

Unsurprisingly, this caught the attention of all of her fans. There have been rumors since the summer that Wilson is dating Miami Heat star Bam Adebayo. Despite everyone connecting the dots, there has never been real confirmation from either side.

Making matters even more intriguing for fans was Reese commenting on the post, asking “sis where can I find this hat?” That had some fans of Reese wondering if the Chicago Sky player has a boyfriend that no one knows about, too.

Reese had dated college basketball player Cam Fletcher previously, but the two confirmed their breakup in March of this year. She has mentioned that she’s not actively looking to date right now.
