One of the NBA’s funniest players is Bam Adebayo, who plays for the Miami Heat. Even when it involves his girlfriend, Las Vegas Aces star A’ja Wilson, he can joke with the best of them. But this time, it was the other way around. The WNBA star was spotted wearing the Miami Heat sweatpants during her practice session.

The images of Wilson training in Heat’s sweats quickly went viral, with the NBA and WNBA community linking her boyfriend, Adebayo, with the pants she wore. For years, the couple kept their relationship private, but haven’t made it public yet. Both Wilson and Adebayo were spotted several times attending various events and NBA games together, all but confirming their status.

This recent act by Wilson just adds a touch of humor for the NBA and WNBA fan bases to chime in on, and that’s exactly what they did. Aside from this, Wilson said, “I mean….” in response to PEOPLE’s question about whether she and her “NBA All-Star” were formally referring to one other as Valentines. Wilson’s alma mater, the University of South Carolina, honored her with a jersey retirement that same month.

The Las Vegas Aces player subtly acknowledged Adebayo, who was seated courtside, during her remarks. Although Wilson and Adebayo have not discussed the start of their romance, Wilson informed PEOPLE that they had been friends “for years.” In addition, Wilson’s signature Nike sneaker was worn by Adebayo on the court during a Miami Heat vs. Brooklyn Nets game in January 2025.
