A'ja Wilson's incident with a heckler at the Indiana Fever vs. Las Vegas Aces game drew quite the reaction from her teammates.
Wilson had an altercation with a Fever fan during their Game 2 loss, and tried to get the fan ejected for being disrespectful to her.
However, the Fever conducted an investigation and found that the fan did not violate their code of conduct and was not ejected.

A clip from a fan sitting behind the man who was heckling A'ja Wilson has surfaced on the internet, in which Las Vegas Aces star Sydney Colson has some harsh words for the heckler.
Colson had to be held back by her teammates, as her frustration with their behaviour almost made her charge at them.
"B**** who the f*** do you think you are?!"
However, this footage has some Aces fans thinking that Colson would not react this aggressively unless some line had been crossed.
One fan simply wrote, "Clear as day," while another fan claimed the fan "said something diabolical because Syd and A'ja would not just get active like this over nothing."
A third fan echoed this sentiment, adding, "And they expect us to believe that fan aint say nothing crazy?"
"This is a clear indication that whatever that fan said was out of pocket," wrote a fourth fan who contributed to this narrative.
A fifth fan pointed out how bizarre the situation was, noting, "They went from having a blast in Atlanta to getting kicked out before the heckler did. Insanity."
"There is no evidence to support the fact that that fan actually did or said something genuinely disrespectful. Pointing at a player during a professional basketball game hardly qualifies as disrespect, I'm sorry," wrote a sixth fan who suggested it was hasty to jump to conclusions.
And lastly, one final fan wrote, "'The fan only pointed at A'ja,' Lol from Syd's reaction, he definitely did more than that."
So far, there is no word on what exactly was said by the heckler that evoked such a reaction from Wilson or Colson.
All we know is that the Fever found no violation of their fan code of conduct. But perhaps the WNBA will look into the situation further and make their own decision.
