After Megan Thee Stallion sent the internet into a frenzy as eagle-eyed fans uncovered a vacation IG photo featuring Klay Thompson in the background, the Dallas Mavericks star leaned into the rumors and soft-launched his relationship with the Houston rapper over the weekend.
Thompson took to Instagram with a photo dump of a recent trip to the Bahamas, and one picture appears to show Megan Thee Stallion’s backside as Klay shares a kiss with the Houston Hottie. A second photo appears to feature Megan’s hand — which features what appears to be the same manicure as in her own IG post — holding his as they walked the beach together.
Fans and the four-time NBA champion’s peers flooded the comment section of the post, which has more than one million likes.
“Klay should change his name to @easymoneysniper with that accuracy,” former NBA player Nate Robinson joked.
Megan continued to fuel relationship rumors with Klay as she posted and deleted a TikTok video on Monday (July 14) unwrapping a plush Labubu toy from what appears to be Thompson’s lap.
Billboard has reached out to Megan Thee Stallion’s rep for comment.
The athlete is currently enjoying his offseason before coming back for his second campaign with the Dallas Mavericks after spending more than a decade with the Golden State Warriors. The 35-year-old shooting guard, who is fifth all-time in three-pointers made in NBA history, has never been married and has no kids.
Into the early part of 2025, Megan Thee Stallion appeared to be still dating NBA player Torrey Craig, but it’s unclear when the relationship broke off.
On the music side, Thee Stallion unleashed her “Whenever” single in April, but has laid low since.
