Even though the Dallas Mavericks started their NBA season with a tough 125–92 loss to the San Antonio Spurs, all eyes weren’t just on the court.
Klay Thompson’s girlfriend, rapper Megan Thee Stallion, became the talk of the night after being spotted hand in hand with the NBA star following the game.
The couple was seen walking through the tunnel at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, where the Texas native supported her boyfriend courtside during the Mavs’ season opener.
Megan, 30, wore a sleek, black bodysuit that perfectly blended sporty and glamorous elements. Her look featured a high neckline with a subtle cut-out detail at the shoulders, creating a halter-style silhouette, paired with strappy black heels and a bold red handbag.
Beside her, Thompson kept it simple in a light-wash denim jacket and jeans combo, a white shirt and sneakers that matched his calm demeanor.. The pair smiled as they exited, showing no signs that the loss had affected their mood.

Not long after the game, Megan shared several photos on Instagram, including solo shots and moments with Thompson.
“Lover Girl,” she wrote in the caption, matching the name of her upcoming album and hinting at the affectionate bond she shares with the Mavericks guard.
Fans gushed over her happiness and presence, with one writing that they hoped she would “marry that man.”
“You look so happy and safe. Makes me happy,” another said.
Others couldn’t help but notice how well the couple looked together.
“Him still being taller than you in heels,” one pointed out.
Some fans even joked about her evolving into a true NBA wife, commenting, “You being a basketball wife is sooo teaaa,” and “Someone dressing like someone wife 😍.”
Another follower summed up the mood perfectly, saying, “I’ve been looking forward to your WAG fits for MONTHS 😭😭😭❤️.”
Wednesday marked Megan’s first regular-season appearance at a Mavericks game since the pair began dating earlier this year. She was first spotted courtside in Las Vegas during a preseason game against the Los Angeles Lakers, and since then, the couple’s appearances have become more frequent.

Thompson, 35, is entering his second year with Dallas after 13 seasons and four NBA titles with the Golden State Warriors. While his debut performance for the season was modest, 10 points in 22 minutes and a 1-for-5 showing from the three-point line, his off-court chemistry with Megan drew equal attention.
During the offseason, the two made their red carpet debut at Megan’s Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala in New York, where she described their meeting as “like a movie.”
Their relationship has since grown steadily, filled with low-key dates and public support moments, including her designing an iced-out “Captain Klay” chain to celebrate his love for sailing.
Mavericks Struggle
On the basketball side, the Mavericks’ night was dominated by the Spurs’ Victor Wembanyama, who scored 40 points and grabbed 15 rebounds. Rookie Cooper Flagg made his NBA debut with 10 points and 10 rebounds, while Anthony Davis led Dallas with 22 points.
Despite the loss, the Mavericks’ lineup showed flashes of potential, though they’ll need to regroup quickly before facing the Washington Wizards next.
And with Megan’s album “Lover Girl” dropping soon, her courtside moment was more than a fashion statement; it was a perfectly timed glimpse of how her music and real life continue to intertwine.
