Liz Cambage has never been shy about making a statement, and her latest Instagram post was another example. The former All-Star shared pictures holding a giant bouquet of flowers, calling it a “special day,” and it didn’t take long for fans to connect the dots.
The reason? Ongoing rumors that she’s seeing NBA superstar Kevin Durant. Daily Loud fanned the flames with their post that read, “7’0” Kevin Durant and 6’9” Liz Cambage are rumored to be dating.” That single line was enough to get both basketball communities talking, with some joking that they’d be the tallest power couple in sports.
For Cambage, the timing couldn’t have been more interesting. The flowers sparked guesses that they might be from Durant, though nothing has been confirmed by either side. Still, when it comes to Liz Cambage, speculation is part of the package. She has always carried herself with equal parts mystery and flair, whether she’s dominating in the paint or posing courtside in high fashion.
What makes Cambage such a magnetic figure is that she isn’t just defined by basketball. The spotlight follows her whether she’s breaking records, dropping bold takes, or posting something as simple as flowers. Add in a swirl of dating buzz with Kevin Durant, and suddenly, her “special day” turned into a conversation that stretched far beyond a bouquet.
Liz Cambage’s 53-Point Game Still Stands Tall In WNBA History
Before all the social media rumors, Liz Cambage had one of the most unstoppable nights the WNBA has ever seen. In July 2018, playing for the Dallas Wings, she exploded for 53 points—still the record for the most in a single league game.
ESPN captured the moment perfectly in their post: “53 points on 22 shots 😳 Liz Cambage broke the @WNBA record for points in a game 🔥.” It wasn’t just the number that made people shake their heads, but how efficiently she scored. She bullied defenders inside, hit jumpers with confidence, and controlled the floor like nobody could stop her.
A’ja Wilson has since tied the mark. But what’s done is done. Liz Cambage has succeeded in making an impact that sends her name in the mix of players with prolific scoring abilities. The bar has now been set and the goalpost has been moved further just because they keep outplaying their old selves.
Whatever rumors or headlines surround her today, the memory of Liz Cambage dropping 53 still towers over them.
