Los Angeles, the iconic city renowned as the heart of the United States’ film and television industry, has been grappling with devastating wildfires since Tuesday. These fires have rapidly spread across the region, destroying hundreds of homes and forcing thousands to evacuate. Amid this tragedy, WNBA star A’ja Wilson took to social media to express her concern and send her prayers to the affected residents.
The wildfires have reportedly burned over 17,000 acres of land, forcing approximately 130,000 people to evacuate their homes. Showing her concerns over the crises, Wilson took to her Instagram stories. Wilson posted a photo of the aerial view of the city destroyed by the fires. Along with the pic, Wilson also captioned it with a praying emoji, symbolizing her solidarity with the affected communities.
Alongside Wilson, several basketball stars, including Flau’Jae Johnson, have also stepped forward to offer their prayers and support during these devastating times. As a result, the outpouring of prayers and solidarity from athletes and fans alike serves as a beacon of hope for the affected residents.
Meanwhile, as Unrivaled is just a few days away from kicking off, many fans wonder why A’ja Wilson is not playing in the newly launched 3X3 league.
