There was a time when the relationship between Phoenix Suns star Devin Booker and model and socialite Kendall Jenner was the talk of the NBA.

The two were inseparable and publicly displayed their affection whenever they could. After two years of on-and-off dating, the two broke off.

During that time, many felt that the Paris Olympics gold medalist suffered what many believe to be the ‘Kardashian Curse,’ as any athlete Kendall Jenner or her sisters dated suffered a major dip in their professional careers and lives.

Booker has since moved on and become the primary superstar on the Phoenix Suns as they move on from their failed super team era involving Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal.

However, it seems the Michigan native has not fully moved on from his former partner, and neither has she, as was evident from this Instagram banter.

I bet a million the Seahawks get a ring before you do.

Devin Booker wrote on IG

This was the 29-year-old’s comment on Fanatics Sportsbook CEO Michael Rubin‘s Instagram post showing Jenner picking the New England Patriots to win Super Bowl 60.

How’s the ankle?

Kendall Jenner replied

The model replied with what could be considered playful banter, as she was referring to the ankle injury Devin Booker suffered recently.

Come rub it.

This was the NBA star’s response that sent the internet alight. After all, this was two former partners throwing subtle jabs at each other on social media.

Fans lose it at Devin Booker and Kendall Jenner’s jabs

Amidst all the fights and ugly fallouts between athletes and their better halves, fans could not believe that Devin Booker and Kendall Jenner would have such a lighthearted banter in public. Many understood this was all for the Fanatics Sportsbook Super Bowl 60 campaign, as both are associated with the brand for quite a few years.

Even then, fans felt that this was epic, as it is difficult for two former exes to respond to each other in this manner unless there was some level of respect and admiration between them. Check out examples of those reactions below.

The last time Jenner and Booker came close to being in the same vicinity was when the model walked down the same path as the Suns superstar before USA Basketball’s game at the Paris Olympics.

However, she was involved with Super Bowl 60 halftime performer Bad Bunny at the time, which stopped any links from forming about the basketball star.

Devin Booker doubled down on his bet with Kendall Jenner

Even though those back-and-forth words with Kendall Jenner were just for fun, it might not lead Devin Booker to rekindle his relationship with the model.

However, the 4-time All-Star stuck to his words and placed his own money on the Seattle Seahawks. Booker placed a bet with Fanatics Sportsbook for $1 million to win Super Bowl 60.

Considering the spread, his payout is less than what his former girlfriend would win. But even then, since this is for charity, either way, both will end up winning for a good cause.
