It was a big start to the day in the WNBA, with Las Vegas Aces superstar A'ja Wilson being named league MVP by a unanimous vote ahead of the start of the postseason.

It is the third WNBA MVP of Wilson's career and it comes after a historic season.

Wilson became the first player in WNBA history to lead the league in total points, rebounds, and blocks in the same season.

After the news was announced, congratulations began pouring in from around the basketball world, and the Miami Heat decided to chime in with a not-so-subtle tweet.

The Heat's official X account shared a photo of star big man Bam Adebayo with the message, "A’random photo of Bam on this lovely Sunday." Adebayo and Wilson have long been rumored to be dating and the "A'random" start to the tweet is a clear nod to Wilson's name.

It was definitely a well-played reaction to the WNBA MVP news.

Entering the postseason, Wilson is averaging an incredible 26.9 points, 11.9 rebounds, and 2.3 assists per game, while adding 1.8 steals and 2.6 blocks per game on the defensive end of the court.
