Finding something to tease A'ja Wilson about is tough these days.

The Las Vegas Aces superstar is fresh off winning a gold medal at the Paris Olympics, where she was crowned MVP of the women's basketball tournament after averaging 18.7 points, 10.2 rebounds and 2.7 blocks for Team USA.

Wilson is also the clear frontrunner for 2024 WNBA MVP, and in the process has asserted herself as the best women's basketball player in the world right now.

Which is to say that Wilson's greatness on the court can't be denied. But that didn't stop Miami Heat and Team USA star Bam Adebayo from seemingly poking fun at Wilson for her wardrobe on Sunday.

Before she posted any photos of her Sunday outfit, Wilson wrote on X, "Wrinkle white tee for the win".

Wilson then entered the Aces' contest against the Los Angeles Sparks about 20 minutes after that initial post, wearing a white t-shirt that had some visible wrinkles on it.

"Fresh out the pack," Wilson wrote in her wardrobe post's caption, along with a white heart.

Adebayo took to X 40 minutes later and wrote, "Do people still iron their clothes?? Or did it stop after Covid?"

While Adebayo's X post doesn't directly reference Wilson, those who have been following basketball this summer know that the two have been spotted numerous times together, and are rumored to be in a romantic relationship that they're attempting to keep secret from the public.

Although this suspected desire for secrecy didn't stop Adebayo from dropping this not-so-subtle response to Wilson's fit — which social media is taking note of.

While fans may never receive direct confirmation that Wilson and Adebayo's relationship is more than platonic, they certainly love to speculate about anything related to these two basketball icons.
