Bam Adebayo’s subtle MVP tweet about A’ja Wilson had WNBA fans so happy

Bam Adebayo Aja Wilson WNBA Aces

A’ja Wilson and Bam Adebayo have not publicly announced that they’re dating, but a recent series of events all but confirms the two are very likely an item.

Let me start by saying that A’ja and Bam don’t owe anyone a confirmation or an explanation about their dating lives. But, if something is happening, they are failing at keeping it under wraps. First, there was an sneaky handshake after the Team USA women won gold. Next, Bam subtly tweets words of encouragement after A’ja’s lousy shooting day against the Chicago Sky.

Then, A’ja’s teammates and Miami-Dade’s mayor dropped so many (unintentional but possibly intentional) dating hints when she attended an event where Bam received a key to the city. After that, the Aces dropped a sneaky “bam” reference after A’ja broke the single-season scoring record. Now, Bam has tweeted again with a specific spelling that is so A’ja-coded that it’s practically SCREAMING it’s for the MVP frontrunner.

It’s the word “unanimous” (likely meaning the center should be a unanimous selection for WNBA MVP) but spelled with an apostrophe — just like A’ja’s name.

Of course, fans had a TIME with Bam’s tweet. Here’s what they said:
