While much noise has been surrounding this NBA offseason, from surprising trade moves to top veterans switching teams, Klay Thompson has been creating his own story off the court. While the Dallas Mavericks star enjoys some much-needed time off the court, he also made sure to grab all the headlines on Saturday.

It’s confirmed, Thompson and famous rap icon Megan Thee Stallion are officially a couple as the former hard-launched their relationship via his latest Instagram post. Firstly, it was just rumors to begin with, while both the NBA and the rap community kept a check on their movements. Thompson confirmed it on Saturday by posting a number of images of the two getting intimate on his Instagram.

Now, as soon as Thompson made this Instagram post, it did not take much time to go viral. The NBA fans were quick to chime in on it as it left everyone stunned, with many having wholesome reactions to the post. Many current and former NBA stars hopped on the bandwagon to congratulate Thompson and Stallion for the hard launch of their relationship.

Despite hard-launching their relationship, Stallion, 30, and Thompson, 35, have not made any official remarks on their relationship status. Before the two participated in a “Couples Challenge” TikTok about a year ago, Meg was previously connected to Boston Celtics guard Torrey Craig, another NBA player. However, that is not the case anymore, with her commitment being towards Thompson lately.

It’s unclear where the two might make their public debuts because the NBA season is still months away, and Megan isn’t currently on tour. Fans will need to continue following closely on social media in the interim, and they should pay particular attention to the people in the background of their posts.

Thompson’s posting about his personal life had to generate interactions, especially if it had Megan Thee Stallion involved in it. That’s exactly what the fans did. Many of them took to various social media apps and sites to put forward their views on this matter. One fan wrote on X, “Someone said that he’s finally scoring again.” Check out some of the reactions below:

As far as scoring is concerned, Thompson shot 41.2% from the field and 39.1% from three-point range in 72 games during the 2024–25 season, finishing with averages of 14.0 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 2.0 assists per game. There is much room for improvement for the veteran, and the upcoming season for him will be an important one.

Klay Thompson is looking forward to sharing the court with D’Angelo Russell once again

Not so long ago, this past season, Kyrie Irving suffered an ACL injury while playing for the Dallas Mavericks on the court. Given that, the Mavericks were in desperate need to replace Irving for the start of the upcoming 2025-26 NBA season. It’s safe to say that they found their starting point guard, signing free agent D’Angelo Russell, as Irving recovers from an ACL injury.

Notably, his former teammate Klay Thompson is relishing the opportunity to play alongside Russell once again. The two last played together at the Golden State Warriors, where Russell stayed just half a season with the Dubs. The two were spotted working out together as they gear up for an important 2025-26 NBA season.

Russell will have a lot of choices in the offense with Thompson, PJ Washington, Cooper Flagg, and Anthony Davis all around him. He should be able to make the most of everyone, especially Flagg, who is hoping to make an impression with his NBA debut.
