A night out for the power couple.
Klay Thompson has been adjusting to a lot of change lately, new city, new team, and now, what looks like a new relationship. After years with the Golden State Warriors, the sharpshooter is now suiting up for the Dallas Mavericks. And based on recent photos, he's enjoying life off the court just as much as on it.

The NBA veteran was recently seen in New York looking very comfortable alongside Grammy-winning rapper Megan Thee Stallion. The two were caught on camera leaving a Manhattan restaurant after what appeared to be a casual but romantic dinner. Thompson couldn’t stop smiling as he walked her to the car, even flashing a big grin after closing the door behind her.
Instagram hints turn into a real-life confirmation
Rumors about the pair began circulating when fans noticed a mystery man in one of Megan’s recent Instagram posts. The photo featured her relaxing poolside, and in the background, a man with a familiar build and beard looked a lot like Thompson. She posted the photo with just a palm tree and airplane emoji, fueling theories that the two were on a getaway together.
Thompson soon added his own photo drop, which included a picture of him kissing someone and another of a hand-holding moment. The nail polish of the woman in the photos matched Megan’s perfectly, essentially confirming what fans had been guessing for days.
By the time video surfaced of their New York dinner date, most people had already put the puzzle together. The clip, which made the rounds on X (formerly Twitter), shows Thompson walking Megan to a car after dinner. He looks completely at ease and genuinely happy, making no effort to hide the affection between them.
While neither has made a public statement, their social media posts and public appearance make it clear they're not exactly keeping things under wraps. Fans are loving this unexpected pairing, with many calling them a new power couple in the making.
Thompson, now 34, is preparing for a fresh start in Dallas after a decade in Golden State that included four championships. Meanwhile, Megan Thee Stallion remains one of the biggest names in music, with a new album and a tour on the horizon.
Whether this is just a summer fling or something more serious, time will tell. But for now, it looks like both are enjoying each other’s company and doing little to hide it.
