Chloe Kitts Sends Message To Boyfriend After Going Viral At NBA Draft originally appeared on The Spun.

South Carolina women’s basketball star Chloe Kitts was truly the star of the 2025 NBA Draft.

Kitts was at the Barclays Center to watch her boyfriend, Collin Murray-Boyles, achieve his lifelong dream of making it to the NBA. He really helped out his draft stock this year by averaging 16.8 points and 8.3 rebounds per game for South Carolina. With that said, the Toronto Raptors selected him with the No. 9 overall pick.

Before the Raptors drafted Murray-Boyles, ESPN’s camera crew showed Kitts sitting next to him. All it took was a quick glance for fans to rave about her outfit. The NCAA champion and SEC Tournament MVP wore a red dress to the NBA Draft.

“Chloe Kitts the woman you are,” one fan wrote on X after seeing her.

“You know what. I want my team to draft Collin Murray Boyles for 1 reason & it ain’t his game,” another fan said. “It’s Chloe Kitts.”

“It’s crazy to think that last year we were sitting on the couch watching the draft, and you looked at me and said, ‘That’ll be me next year.’ And now… it is you,” Kitts wrote on Instagram. “Watching you get drafted into the NBA was one of the most powerful, emotional moments I’ve ever experienced not just because of what it means, but because I know the sacrifice, the long nights, the setbacks, and the quiet battles it took to get here.

“You earned this with everything you are. I am endlessly proud of you. But more than that, you inspire me. The way you chase your dreams makes me want to chase mine even harder. I’ll be right here beside you through every chapter. God has a special plan for you and i am excited to watch it fall into place. I love u c. Still can’t guard me though.”

Murray-Boyles returned the favor by dishing a few compliments to Kitts during his first press conference as a member of the Raptors.

“She’s amazing for me,” Murray-Boyles told reporters. “She knows the sacrifices that come with being a bball player. She fully embraces it. I never take her for granted.”

If her schedule isn’t too hectic, Kitts will have a chance to support Murray-Boyles during the Summer League. Who knows? Maybe she’ll show up to a few games.
