Las Vegas Aces star A’ja Wilson has emerged as one of the most prominent figures in women’s basketball. Her outstanding achievements and dominant performances on the court have boosted her confidence in her skills. However, this confidence has recently caused her some trouble, as NBA fans criticized her for a recent statement she made.
In a recent episode of the “Roommates” show, Wilson stunned both the NBA and WNBA by claiming that she could defeat New York Knicks star Josh Hart in a one-on-one matchup. Additionally, she predicted that the final score would be 11-8.
“Score would be 11-8, me. I’m not saying you gonna go scoreless, 8 to 11 is pretty solid. So, what do you think it’ll be, Josh?” Wilson said.
Although Josh and Wilson both had a good laugh during their conversation, Wilson’s comment stirred up the basketball community. “She’d lose 11-0 w him only playing w his offhand,” one fan said.
Meanwhile, another fan mentioned, “She’d lose to Pacome Dadiet.“
Another fan remarked, “Set it up.”
A sports enthusiast mentioned, “she’d actually embarrass josh i’m not even joking.”
Meanwhile, another fan remarked, “Only a woman would say it ‘8-11‘”
Another fan commented, “I am beating aja 11-0.”
Wilson Emphasizes The Grueling Demands Of WNBA Players’ Schedules
A’ja Wilson In just seven seasons in the WNBA, the Aces star has achieved remarkable success, including two WNBA Championships, three WNBA MVP awards, and one WNBA Finals MVP award. In September, she reached another significant milestone in her professional career.
During a recent interview featuring NBA players Josh Hart and Jalen Brunson, the conversation turned to sports schedules. During this discussion, Wilson passionately asserted that WNBA players endure more rigorous and challenging schedules compared to NBA players.
“Our rookie orientation is not anything too crazy. It’s like a day before the draft and you’re sitting and talking, but, like, we don’t get to go workout for teams, we don’t have a combine. You literally go from college, I remember it was like, I went in, I got drafted, I did training camp and I came back to college just to walk to graduate and then I had to go play my first preseason game,” Wilson said.
Wilson’s statement is expected to attract the attention of NBA players and sports analysts, making it interesting to observe their reactions.
