A’ja Wilson and Allisha Gray‘s friendship is perfect.
When Allisha Gray won the skills contest and 3-point challenge Friday, A’ja Wilson was right there, cheering her on. Wilson was even wholesomely rocking a pair of goggles, too, as a tribute to Gray’s signature on-court look.
So, it’s not surprising that when they both had the chance to play each other, some friendly banter would happen. Allisha was driving to the basket for an easy score when A’ja dropped into the paint and jumped up to contest the shot — only she accidentally fouled Gray, sending her to the ground. Right on cue, Allisha says, “Dang, A’ja!” and A’ja responds by jokingly complaining to the refs that her bestie was flopping.
