While neither has confirmed a romantic relationship, their interactions both on and off the court have led fans to speculate about the nature of their bond.

From courtside support to social media hints, here’s a closer look at the ongoing rumors surrounding Bam Adebayo’s girlfriend.

The Dating Rumors That Won’t Die

The speculation surrounding Adebayo and Wilson gained traction over the past year as the two basketball stars were frequently seen supporting each other.

Whether attending games, exchanging unique handshakes, or engaging in playful banter online, the duo has kept fans guessing.

Most recently, A’ja Wilson was spotted hyping up Bam Adebayo after his game-winning shot against the San Antonio Spurs.

She took to X (formerly Twitter), posting a simple but enthusiastic “LFG” (Let’s freaking go!).

On Instagram Threads, she went a step further, posting “SCREAMS,” making it clear that she was celebrating Adebayo’s big moment.

Public Appearances And ‘Date Nights’

While neither Adebayo nor Wilson has officially addressed their relationship status, they have been seen together on multiple occasions.

In January 2025, Adebayo and Wilson were reportedly spotted dining at Novikov, a high-end restaurant. Though they weren’t captured on camera together, sources say they left in the same car.

Similarly, the duo attended Miami Heat legend Dwyane Wade’s statue unveiling together, further fueling the rumors.

At the 2024 Paris Olympics, Adebayo and Wilson were seen attending each other’s games and sharing intimate moments, including their signature handshake.

Furthermore, Adebayo received a key to the city last year, and Wilson was among the special guests in attendance.

Social Media Hints And Trolling

NBA and WNBA fans have noticed the continuous trolling and subtle hints from both players.
