A Timeline of Megan Thee Stallion & Klay Thompson’s Relationship
Here’s everything we know about the rapper and the Dallas Mavericks guard.
The sports world found another high-profile WAG – that stands for wives and girlfriends – in Megan Thee Stallion, who started dating Dallas Mavericks shooting guard Klay Thompson in the summer of 2025.
And just like other pairings between A-List musicians (Meg boasts three no. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 as well as three Grammys) and athletic legends (Thompson earned four championship rings as a key part of the Golden State Warriors), the duo received a lot of attention for their coupling. Also similar to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, David and Victoria Beckham and Ciara and Russell Wilson, the rapper and basketball player faced plenty of criticism from sports fans – and commentators – as well.
But nothing phased the lovers when they were together. “We met and it was such a meet cute,” Megan told People in July. “I won’t tell you how and I won’t tell you when, but it was a movie,” adding that “he’s the nicest person I’ve ever met in my life.”
Between golfing outings, games and plenty of PDA-packed posts on their social media accounts, Megan and Klay seemed more than comfortable sharing their journey with everyone, while still having time for their own careers. (Her single “Lover Girl” – with the appropriately sexy and loved-up lyrics “My man, my man, my man, my baby, my baby/ D–kin’ me down, spoilin’ me, drivin’ me crazy” – dropped at the end of October 2025, and he returned to the court for his 13th season in the NBA the same month.)
In April 2026, though, the couple’s roughly nine-month relationship ended, with Meg claiming, “b—- I need a REAL break after this one.”
