A'ja Wilson returned to South Carolina on Sunday to see her No. 22 jersey retired at her alma mater. Wilson, who led the Gamecocks to their first national championship in 2017 and already has a statue of her built in front of the school's basketball arena, now gets to have her jersey hanging in the rafters. The Las Vegas Aces star had a notable guest in attendance for the momentous occasion—Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo.
Adebayo sat court-side for Wilson's jersey retirement ceremony, and the two were both dressed in suits with a matching pattern. He sat alongside her parents and Wilson's former South Carolina teammate Allisha Gray.
