Rapper Megan Thee Stallion was in attendance at the Mavericks‑Lakers game in Los Angeles and was seen sitting courtside alongside Klay Thompson’s mother, Julie Thompson, as a public display of support towards her relationship with the veteran guard.
This appearance added to a summer where the two confirmed their relationship for the public to see after producing social media posts and other outings that showed their bond deepening as the summer went along.
The visit followed months of visible couple moments, including shared boat trips and gym sessions that have drawn media attention and fan interest as the relationship has progressed from private outings to high‑profile public appearances.
Onlookers observed Megan’s smooth assimilation with Thompson’s family as a sign that the couple’s relationship had advanced from the casual dating stage to a more established stage.
As the NBA regular season is set to begin, the courtside glimpse of Megan alongside Thompson and his family spoke volumes to how the couple handled being underscoped in public and their efforts at integrating into each other’s lives, signaling that she will continue to attend games for the foreseeable future.
