WNBA MVP A’ja Wilson confirmed her romance with Miami Heat star Bam Adebayo.

During a recent interview with People.com, the Las Vegas Aces star explained why they didn’t spend Valentine’s Day together.

“My plans are here at NBA All-Star,” A’ja said before adding that Bam didn’t make the All-Star game in San Francisco.

“My NBA All-Star is not here,” she said. A’ja explained that Bam stayed home in Miami to get some rest.

“And that’s the best Valentine’s gift that I can truly give him, is just the rest,” she added.

Bam, 27, demonstrated his love for A’ja during an NBA game on Feb. 10 when he rocked a pair of her signature Nike A’One sneakers in size 16.

A’ja, 28, was ecstatic that her man wore her shoes during a game.

“It was super dope. It was a moment,” A’ja said of Bam Adebayo wearing her shoe. Bam “really wanted to be at the forefront of pushing my shoes,” she said. “If I have to put it out in the NBA, why not have someone like Bam Adebayo, who’s just a good person all around, to kind of showcase my shoes, so I was thankful he was able to wear it.”

A’ja’s signature A’Ones go on sale at select retail locations in May 2025.
