Columbia – NBA Star Bam Adebayo Was in Columbia for former South Carolina Women’s Basketball Star A’Ja Wilson’s Jersey retirement on Sunday.

Wilson’s No. 22 Jersey was hung in the barriers before South Carolina’s match against Auburn (Dinner, SEC Network). Adebayo was seen walking in and sitting in the court until the ceremony then sat with Wilson and her parents as the game started.

The two basketball icons are rumored to be dating even if none of them have confirmed in public. In his speech on Sunday, Wilson suggested to Adebayo with a thank you shoutout.

“What blessing to have them most special to me court today … especially my favorite solathic from the city,” Wilson said.

Adebayo has been with Miami Heat since 2017 and, like Wilson, is a two-time Olympic gold medal.

On Saturday night, Adebayo hit a game -winning shot against San Antonio Spurs with 0.7 seconds left in the fourth quarter. He finished with 30 points and 12 rebounds less than 24 hours before being seen in the Colonial Life Arena.

In September, Adebayo received a key to the county Miami with five other Olympians from Miami-Dade County and Wilson there was present with his family.
