A’ja Wilson reacts humorously upon learning Olivia Miles' age
Summary

A’ja Wilson, a veteran player for the Las Vegas Aces, reacted with surprise during a media session before the 2026 WNBA All-Star Game when she discovered Minnesota Lynx rookie Olivia Miles was born in 2003. Wilson initially thought Miles was a 2000 baby and humorously corrected the rookie after she miscalculated Wilson's age at 27 instead of her actual age of 29. The two players are set to team up for the All-Star event as members of Team Spoon, with Wilson making her eighth appearance and Miles her first. Both players have had impressive seasons, with Wilson leading the league in scoring and Miles being a frontrunner for Rookie of the Year.
