” All this fan wanted for her birthday was to meet A’ja Wilson, and A’ja made sure that wish came true,” the tweeted by the WNBA read.

On top of her off-the-court moments, Wilson has registered stellar stats for the Las Vegas Aces on the court this season. The champions of the last two WNBA seasons (2022 and 2023), the Aces have had a modest start with a 4-2 record so far.

That domination on the court is exemplified in the fact that Wilson is second in the league in scoring, averaging 26.5 points per game, and at the very top in rebounding with 12.5 boards per game.
