Root described her as \"unhinged & woke\" after she responded to his inquiry about her \"Love Beats Hate\" sign. During their exchange, Jonny asked her what the sign meant, but she simply reiterated the inscription. He then inquired whether she believed Indiana Fever fans were hateful, to which she responded with a direct yes. Root's tweet about this interaction read, \"Can confirm that A'ja Wilson’s mom is just as unhinged & woke as her daughter.\"",
