The question was never if but when would A’ja Wilson win the MVP award. After breaking the scoring and rebounding record for the season, the 2x MVP claimed her 3rd such honor. Even the Las Vegas minority owner Tom Brady couldn’t wait to congratulate the Aces star. Even long-time supporter LeBron James was quick to spread the word about the record of the South Carolina alum. Similarly, Gabrielle Union too shared the achievement on her social media.

Not just on one platform, but on X and Instagram. She retweeted the post, “BREAKING: A’ja Wilson becomes the youngest player in WNBA history to accumulate 3 MVP awards! 🃏 #WNBA.” For IG, Gabrielle Union shared the Bleacher Report post on her story, “A’JA WILSON WINS UNANIMOUS MVP 🚨🔥 26.9 PTS 11.9 REB 2.6 BLK Her THIRD time winning MVP 👏”

The Las Vegas Aces Center won the WNBA’s MVP for the third time, and she received all 67 first-place votes. Thus, becoming the only unanimous MVP since Cynthia Cooper achieved the feat in 1997. Not just Gabrielle Union, but even her husband and Miami Heat legend expressed his support for A’ja Wilson.

When she broke the 1000-point mark, Dwyane Wade wrote, “MAJOR 🔥👏🏾.” Similarly, when the Nike deal about her signature shoe was announced, ‘the Flash’ couldn’t wait to get the sneakers for his daughter. “Can’t wait to get Kaav a pair of A 1’s. Congrats A’ja Wilson.”

The 2x WNBA Champion led the league in points (26.9) and blocks (2.6), plus was second in the rebounds category 11.9, but broke the most rebounds in a season (451) held by Sky rookie Angel Reese. The 6’4″ star did not score 20-plus points in only 4 of her games from 38 appearances.

Tom Brady and LeBron James celebrate ‘U’nanimously’ apart from Gabrielle Union

Tom Brady couldn’t resist joining the praise party and wrote “UNANIMOUS” on his IG story. LeBron James did not write a word, but uploaded multiple stories on Instagram in appreciation of A’ja Wilson. And just like his banana boat crew member Dwyane Wade who celebrated the 1000 points mark, even the Lakers superstar did the same previously.

“Straight buckets! Congratulations sis,” James posted. “Love to see it.” Even Wilson felt honored winning her 3rd MVP title. While speaking with ABC News’ Jaclyn Lee, “Oh, man, I feel amazing… It’s truly a blessing to get an MVP as a whole, but to say that this is my third… It’s a good feeling. It really is.” The instrumental season will continue for A’ja Wilson and surely Gabrielle Union, Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, Tom Brady, and others will be there to celebrate the success once again.

Lee mentioned that the award was unanimous to the 28-year-old and the first-time winner since 1997. “Oh, that’s incredible, I did not know it was unanimous, That’s so cool.” Certainly, the back-to-back champion has created a different league for herself. And only time will tell if anyone would be able to match up to the stats of this one!
