A'ja Wilson Criticizes Teammates Over Usher Photos

A'ja Wilson criticized her Las Vegas Aces teammates for prioritizing photos with Usher over their performance after a disappointing 93-85 loss to the Chicago Sky, snapping a four-game winning streak. Wilson's frustration stemmed from her 28-point, 14-rebound effort being insufficient due to her teammates' lackluster performances, with notable underachievements from Kelsey Plum and Chelsea Gray. Despite her initial annoyance, Wilson eventually shared a moment with Usher, fulfilling a long-standing wish to meet him at a game. Wilson's candid remarks drew comparisons to Kobe Bryant's intense competitive spirit. This incident occurred just before the mid-season All-Star and Olympic break, where Wilson is set to represent the USA. The loss, however, does not overshadow Wilson's MVP-caliber season, as she continues to excel statistically.
