There's no question that people are buying into A'ja Wilson and Bam Adebayo's romance, including their respective team's social media. After Wilson was unanimously named MVP of the league earlier, the Miami Heat's social media account didn't waste any time poking fun at their relationship.
“A’random photo of Bam on this lovely Sunday,” the account tweeted with a picture of Adebayo taking a jump shot.
Earlier in the week, Adebayo sent a cryptic congratulations after Wilson became the first player to score 1,000 points in a single season against the Connecticut Sun.
Hope everybody finds A’thousand reasons to smile on this lovely Sunday,” Adebayo tweeted.
Before Wilson was named MVP, Adebayo tweeted one word saying “U’nanimous” with the apostrophe related to A'ja's first name.
