Looks like Klay Thompson won't be getting a taste of Megan Thee Stallion's "Sweetest Pie" anymore ... 'cause she just confirmed to TMZ she dumped him. The singer tells TMZ via her rep ... "I’ve made the decision to end my relationship with Klay. Trust, fidelity and respect are non-negotiable for me in a relationship, and when those values are compromised, there’s no real path forward. I’m taking this time to prioritize myself and move ahead with peace and clarity.”
Megan Thee Stallion has publicly ended her relationship with Dallas Mavericks player Klay Thompson, accusing him of cheating in an Instagram Story. On Saturday (April 25), the 3-time Grammy winner posted a message about the NBA player (who she didn’t explicitly name, but whose identity was clear) cheating, despite the fact that she had gotten close with his family members. “Holding you down through all your HORRIBLE mood swings and treatment towards me during your basketball season now you don’t know if you can be “monogamous?” Megan wrote. “Bitch I need a REAL break after this one. Bye yall,” she concluded.”
The rapper told Complex via a rep: “I’ve made the decision to end my relationship with Klay. Trust, fidelity and respect are non-negotiable for me in a relationship, and when those values are compromised, there’s no real path forward. I’m taking this time to prioritize myself and move ahead with peace and clarity.”

Crazy Stats: Kon Knueppel and LaMelo Ball became the second duo in @NBA history to finish first and second in made three-pointers in a season, joining Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson. Curry and Thompson did it four times (2013-14, 2014-15, 2015-16, and 2016-17).
Thompson was directly asked after the match in the final press conference of the season about his future with the Mavericks, giving a vague answer: "Oh, hard hitter. I’m not sure. I mean, I’m under contract, so I do. But i’ve definitely learned my time in Dallas, things can change on a time," he started. "I’m just here to have a great time and put my best foot forward that’s all you can do really." "That’s the hardest part of being an NBA player. They think they pay you for the records broken or the rings won but it’s really, they pay you for being able to be traded, being on the road away from your family on a consistent basis, going through injury and all the stuff that the common fan doesn’t really see. That’s what really makes it difficult," he concluded.
ESPN Insights: LaMelo Ball and Kon Knueppel join Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson as the only teammates to each make 270 threes in a season Curry and Thompson did it twice (2015-16 and 2022-23).
"We don’t want to play for anyone else," Green told Tim Kawakami on "The TK Show" Saturday. "We built this thing together." Green emphasized that Kerr’s role in the Warriors dynasty is just as significant as the team’s core players, including Steph Curry and his former teammate, Klay Thompson. "Just as much impact as Steph Curry has had, as I’ve had, as Klay’s had, Steve’s had," Green said. "We built this thing up from the ground."

In the second quarter of the Dallas Mavericks’ Feb. 7 road game against the San Antonio Spurs, Klay Thompson got hot. The future Hall of Fame shooting guard made a 3 from the right corner first and then another 3 from the left wing. He scored 14 points in fewer than four minutes. Amid that flurry, according to multiple sources inside Frost Bank Center, Thompson turned toward the Spurs’ bench and said, “It doesn’t matter. We’re tanking.”
Can you go into detail how what the matchup would’ve looked like between the ’86 Celtics team against the 95-96 Bulls and against the Warriors with Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green and Andre Iguodala? Robert Parish: “Those teams mirrored how we played. There was a lot of ball movement and a lot of body movement. There was solid coaching. That’s where it starts with the coaching. Every great team mirrors the coaching philosophy. I think it would’ve been exciting. It would’ve been physical, too. If we had the same rules that we had back then when we were active players, it would be a more physical ball game. There would be a lot more contact and less freedom of movement. I think that would add to the allure of the two teams competing. I like the fact that the officials would let the players decide the outcome of the ball game, not the officials making calls that they should not have called. They would just let it go and let us play. Those are the best officials. They let the teams decide the outcome of the ball game. That’s how we would’ve been adjudicated. They would let us decide who is going to win. The reason why I keep going back to Bill Walton – look at the center position with those championship teams. Think about Bill Walton’s MVP season. Those guys are in trouble. Every other position, you can see it’s a wash. But when William comes in the ball game, that’s the difference, in my opinion. Even the Lakers, as long as they were, did not have an answer for Bill Walton.”
