NBA star Klay Thompson appears to have gone Instagram official with his latest flame, Megan Thee Stallion.
The new couple first sparked romance rumors earlier this week when the Dallas Mavericks forward was spotted in the Grammy winner’s vacation snaps.
Eagle-eyed fans were quick to notice Thompson relaxing in the background on a sun lounger while the rapper took some sizzling bikini shots by the pool on holiday, with reports later that they are now an item.
And the four-time NBA champion confirmed the speculation to be true Saturday when he seemingly hard-launched their budding romance.
Thompson, 35, shared a series of photos from a tropical getaway to the Bahamas on Instagram Saturday and buried in the carousel were a number of teasing glimpses of his new boo.
In one photo, the hoops star could be seen locking lips with a woman wearing a tight-fitting pair of leggings. While only the back of her head is visible, her hairstyle and nails appear to match recent snaps shared by Megan Thee Stallion.

In a later photo, Thompson was captured holding hands with the mystery woman, providing a clearer view of the baby pink nails – the same color as the rapper’s.
Their romance comes just three months after her relationship with another basketball player, Boston Celtics small forward Torrey Craig, seemingly came to an end.
The 30-year-old has been romantically linked with a number of high-profile names over the years, including Chelsea soccer star Romelu Lukaku.
She also previously dated fellow rappers Tory Lanez and Moneybagg Yo, as well as songwriter Pardison ‘Pardi’ Fontaine.
In August of last year Megan confirmed she was dating Craig after accidentally sharing a video of them together on TikTok.
She posted a clip of her and Craig, who was playing for the Chicago Bulls at the time, carrying out a couple’s challenge while laying in bed together.
In the video, the loved-up pair fielded a series of questions on their relationship while shutting their eyes and pointing to the person
At one stage they were even asked who said the words ‘I love you’ first, with both of them pointing to the other in a video that was quickly deleted.

Thompson, the son of former NBA player Mychal Thompson, recently wrapped up his debut season with the Mavericks after ending his 13-year stay with the Golden State Warriors in 2024.
He put pen to paper on a three-year, $50m contract in Dallas via a six-team sign and trade, which also included the Philadelphia 76ers, Charlotte Hornets, Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves.
In his first year with the Mavs the shooting guard made 72 appearances, averaging 14 points, 3.4 rebounds and two assists per game.
