R&B star Usher finally made his way to a Las Vegas Aces game on Tuesday night - two years after A'ja Wilson hilariously urged him to attend the team's championship parade.
Wilson and the world-renowned singer embraced after the game, with the two-time MVP presenting him with her jersey.
'Dreams do come true,' the WNBA's X account captioned a clip of the interaction.
Back in 2022, after the Aces had won the WNBA championship, Wilson was adamant that Usher attend their title celebrations.
'Usher, I better see you Usher,' she said in the post-game press conference. 'I'm not playing with you.'

The now-45-year-old was unable to attend the 2022 parade - or the 2023 parade after the Aces repeated as champs - but the Vegas resident later invited the team to one of his concerts.
Wilson and her teammates took him up on his offer and she was serenaded by Usher onstage in October 2023.
After watching the Aces take on the Chicago Sky, Usher also posed with Sydney Colson and Jackie Young.
Colson, Young and Wilson all smiled next to the singer despite their team losing 93-85 to the Sky.

Wilson played extremely well in the losing effort as she tallied 28 points and 14 rebounds.
Tiffany Hayes also added 19 for Vegas while Young had 17.
However, Chennedy Carter put on an absolute show for the Sky as she scored 34 points in the win.
Rookie double-double machine Angel Reese also added 13 points and 10 rebounds for the Sky, while Marina Mabrey scored 15.
