Klay Thompson has been writing his own story off the court, even though the NBA offseason has been filled with a lot of buzz about unexpected trades and top veterans switching teams. Not long ago, Thompson stunned the NBA fan base when he made his relationship with rapper Megan Thee Stallion public via an Instagram post.

Now, since making their relationship public, the two have been spotted together several times as they enjoy their vacation together. Most recently, the couple attended the Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala at Gotham Hall in New York City. The two walked in on the red carpet and posed for a few pictures in front of the media.

Stallion also took the opportunity to speak with the Page Six reporters at the event. She opened up about her relationship with the NBA star and had nothing but praise for her new boyfriend.

I have never dated somebody so kind. This is my first relationship where I’ve ever been with somebody who’s genuinely a nice person, and he makes me genuinely happy.

The new pair looked cozy as they went out hand in hand on the carpet. They started dating rumors earlier this month when Stallion discreetly included Thompson in the background of one of her attractive social media photos. As they posed for some snaps in front of the step-and-repeat, they both hugged one another and grinned broadly.

Their bond and admiration for each other was on full display on the red carpet as Thompson also gave his girlfriend a kiss before allowing her to pose for a few solo pictures in front of the media. Megan wore a black form-fitting halter gown with a sparkling jeweled belt to the black-tie event. She put her hair up in a sleek bun. Thompson, on the other hand, backed his lady in a dashing black tuxedo.

Klay Thompson on the recent Kobe Bryant disrespect

The Bleacher Report would have surely known before releasing their top 100 NBA players’ list that many players and fans would come at them if they were to disrespect the late Kobe Bryant. Despite that, they released their top 100 NBA list, which had Bryant in 11th position in the rankings list. This, in particular, left many annoyed, especially the current Dallas Mavericks star, Klay Thompson.

The Maverick is not someone who has a huge social media presence or activity, but this time around, when the matter came to Bryant, he did not choose to shy away. He made his opinions clear on the matter via his Instagram stories.

WTF is wrong with y’all?

Klay Thompson posted a montage of Kobe Bryant’s highlights and wrote

Kobe is one of the greatest of all time. There is no question about that. The fun part of lists like this is debating whether you think he should be higher or lower. Fans of Kobe may contend that he merited a higher ranking, but Bleacher Report thought otherwise. To make matters worse for Thompson, they had his former teammate and Splash bro, Stephen Curry, in at #10 on the list.

Klay Thompson is eager to play alongside D’Angelo Russell once again

While on the floor with the Mavs last season, Kyrie Irving had an ACL injury. Because of this, they desperately needed to sign a starter before the 2025–2026 NBA season began. With the addition of free agent D’Angelo Russell, as Irving heals from an ACL injury, it’s safe to say they have identified their starting point guard.

And none other than his former teammate, Klay Thompson, is eager to play alongside Russell at the Mavs in the upcoming season. So much so that the two players were also spotted training together ahead of their training camp. Russell only played with the Dubs for half a season with the Golden State Warriors, where the two last played together.

With Anthony Davis, Cooper Flagg, PJ Washington, and Thompson surrounding him, Russell will have plenty of options in the offense. He ought to be able to maximize everyone’s potential, including Flagg, who wants to hit the ground running with his upcoming NBA debut.
