The Aces star broke one of rookie Angel Reese's records on Tuesday.
Las Vegas Aces star A’ja Wilson barely moved a muscle when told she had just set the new WNBA record for most rebounds in a single season Tuesday night., added yet another impressive WNBA feat to her growing resume—though her nonchalant reaction in a postgame media session wouldn’t have given anything away.
Following the Aces’s 85-72 win over the Seattle Storm, Wilson was asked about her new record via a video call with reporters. She wasn’t previously aware of the accomplishment and seemingly brushed it off as Aces coach Becky Hammon and teammate Kelsey Plum poked fun at her. “Record for what?” Wilson said. “Rebounds? Oh, um, that’s cool. I don’t hunt rebounds, you know, so it’s not something that’s always on my mind. But when it comes to just getting the basketball for my team—”“I mean, I’m 6’4’’ and I’m around the basket, I hope I can grab a couple rebounds for my team,” Wilson continued.
