A’ja Wilson turns heads by attending Dwyane Wade statue unveiling alongside Bam Adebayo

A’ja Wilson and Miami Heat star Bam Adebayo were the subject of relationship rumors during the summer as fans speculated that the two were an item. Leading up to the 2024 Paris Olympics, they were seen on what many fans believed was a date while in Las Vegas for the pre-Olympic training camp.

During the Olympics, Adebayo was sitting courtside with several of his Team USA teammates to watch Wilson and the women’s team capture gold. After Wilson and Team USA’s win, she and Adebayo showed off a secret handshake, further fueling relationship rumors.

In September, when Adebayo was part of a group that was presented with the keys to the city of Miami, Wilson was in attendance. Her presence was even acknowledged by Mayor Daniella Levine Cava, who joked about her being there for Adebayo.

Their most recent public appearance was on Sunday. The two were at Kaseya Center for Hall of Famer Dwyane Wade’s statue unveiling.

While the two haven’t confirmed that they are in a relationship, between their secret handshake, public outings and the hints Adebayo has dropped online, fan speculation has run wild. Despite that, Adebayo was not spotted at the WSJ awards.
