A’ja Wilson and Bam Adebayo were pushed to the headlines on Thursday by an X account that often trolls basketball players. According to the parody site, Wilson is pregnant and expecting twins with her Miami Heat star boyfriend. The fake news garnered nearly 500,000 views in nearly three hours.
The tweet from @Hoopss is a rehash of a similar story that was posted in mid-December 2025. That made-up story from @HoopsCrave earned over 6 million views. The re-tweeted news isn’t getting as much traction as the original, but it stirred social media again.
In early December last year, A’ja Wilson was named TIME’s 2025 Athlete of the Year. In a chat with Sean Gregory, who conducted the publication’s interview with Wilson, the journalist wrote about Wilson and Adebayo’s excitement to build a family.
In the article, Wilson said:
“That is always a dream. This is my life partner. Honestly, what on earth was my world before you?”
A part of the plan in A’ja Wilson’s relationship with Bam Adebayo is to have kids, something the trolls on X have pounced on.
A’ja Wilson Nearly Got Perfect Score in Bam Adebayo Trivia
A’ja Wilson went to the TD Garden in Boston to cheer for her boyfriend, Bam Adebayo, and the Miami Heat. Before the highly anticipated matchup against the Celtics, Maddy Sells convinced Wilson to try the “Boyfriend Test Quiz.”
Wilson breezed through some of the questions, including when Adebayo was drafted and how many times he has been named an All-Star. The four-time WNBA MVP hesitated when asked about Adebayo’s Kentucky teammates who made it to the NBA. After some thought, she correctly mentioned De’Aaron Fox and Malik Monk.
A’ja Wilson’s only mistake was when she incorrectly answered that Adebayo was 13 when he made it to the All-McDonald’s American game. She later realized that he was 16 when he earned that honor.
Overall, Wilson showed that she knows most of Bam Adebayo’s on-court achievements.
