Why was A'ja Wilson hanging out with Trae Young on the set of 'General Hospital'? | The State

Seems like A'ja Wilson is working on a backup plan for when her basketball career ends.

The South Carolina women's basketball star spent some time Thursday on the set of the long-running soap opera "General Hospital," alongside fellow basketball star Trae Young, of Oklahoma, and ESPN analyst Jay Williams.

Wilson's visit was part of her stay in Los Angeles as a finalist for the John R. Wooden Award, given to the national player of the year on both the men's and women's side. Young is a finalist for the men's award.

The Wooden Award will be presented Friday on ESPN2 as part of the ESPN College Basketball Awards.
