Klay Thompson didn’t like the way former NBA players Patrick Beverley and Jason Williams spoke about his girlfriend, rapper and music star Megan Thee Stallion on a recent podcast, and the Dallas Mavericks veteran showed up in the comments section to let them know about it.
Thompson was the subject of a clip from the latest episode of ‘Hoopin’ N Hollerin” in which Beverley and Williams, among others, discussed Thompson’s shooting struggles this season with the Mavericks. The team recently moved the 35-year-old to the bench.
Williams, who played 12 seasons in the NBA mainly with the Sacramento Kings, Memphis Grizzlies and Miami Heat, then used a vulgar word (describing the female anatomy) while referencing Thompson’s relationship with Megan Thee Stallion and wondered aloud if it could be contributing to Thompson’s struggles this season.
‘Referring to my GF as a (expletive) is so disgusting and disturbing. Especially from someone who played in the NBA,’ Thompson wrote in a comment about the reel. ‘How would yall feel if I referred to your wives in such a way? @patbev21 Do better fellas. Very disappointing.’
Thompson and Megan Thee Stallion went public with their relationship last July after growing speculation that they were dating.
Thompson is currently averaging a career-low 8.5 points per game on 32% shooting, including 28.9% from 3-point range. He’s in his second year with the Mavericks after signing a 3-year, $50 million contract to leave the Golden State Warriors for Dallas before the 2024-25 NBA season.
