There is no denying that Klay Thompson is a man in love. While the NBA star and Megan Thee Stallion tried to keep their romance under wraps during the early stages of dating, they are now very open and proud of their relationship. While they haven’t announced an engagement yet, Thompson is making it known that he sees a future with Megan. The hoopster renamed his boat after his lady, just weeks after defending her after podcasters accused her of messing up his game.
Megan the Stallion and Klay Thompson’s relationship timeline
In May 2025, rumors began to circulate that Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson were an item. Those rumors gained steam in July 2025, when both Thompson and Megan Thee Stallion posted from the same poolside locale. It didn’t take long for fans to get actual confirmation of a romance. They hard-launched the relationship on July 16 when they made their first red-carpet appearance together at Megan’s inaugural charity event, the Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala in New York City.
Since then, they’ve been speaking out about each other when necessary. Megan described Klay Thompson as the nicest person she’s ever met. Thompson defended his love when Patrick Beverley and Jason Williams tried to blame Megan Thee Stallion for Thompson’s supposed slump. Thompson took to the comments section for Beverly and William’s podcast, Hoopin and Hollerin’, and told them both to “do better.” Megan cooked a Thanksgiving feast for the Thompson family, which further suggests things are getting very serious very quickly.
Klay Thompson is making his feelings known
While Klay Thompson hasn’t popped the question to Megan Thee Stallion just yet, he has no problem declaring his love to the world. It’s clear that he thinks this romance might be pretty permanent. Aside from introducing Megan to his family, Thompson has made other moves to show he wants to keep her in his life. He recently renamed his boat.
On November 30, 2025, Thompson shared a series of photos on social media from his holiday weekend. In an Instagram photo carousel, Thompson included a photo of his boat with a new name. The boat is now the S.S. Stallion. “Houston, TX” is also prominently displayed on the boat. Houston happens to be Megan Thee Stallion’s hometown. She was featured in the photo. Fans were quick to give the NBA star’s sweet gesture their nod of approval. While it’s no engagement ring, it’s certainly a sweet show of his commitment to the celebrated music artist.
