Megan Thee Stallion confirms romance with hunky NBA star Klay Thompson on romantic night out in NYC
The 30-year-old rapper was seen holding hands with the hunky basketball player, 35, while heading out of a New York City restaurant after their dinner date.
They put on a very romantic public display of affection just shortly after the pair dropped clues that they were dating each other in their recent social posts this week.
Earlier this week, the Savage hitmaker shared sizzling bikini photos with her new beau in the background while they were enjoying a tropical couple's getaway together in the Bahamas.
For their date night in the early morning hours at celebrity hotspot Carbone in the city, the bombshell slipped into a skintight, semi-sheer dress to show off her toned figure.
She paired the colorful, sleeveless midi dress with sky-high, metallic silver stilettos and a rose gold, leather purse for her effortlessly chic and glamorous outfit.
She wore dainty gold jewelry and showed off an eye-catching, crimson red and stiletto-shaped manicure for their night out on the town.
To match, she rocked a glossy, deep red lip gloss as the highlight of her soft and otherwise monochromatic makeup look.
Her lush, dark waves cascaded around her shoulders and down her back.
As for the basketball player, who is currently playing for the Dallas Mavericks following 13 seasons with the Golden State Warriors, he looked effortlessly stylish and handsome in a white polo shirt and sheeny, blue track pants.
They kept their hands intertwined even while getting into their car at the end of their date night just shortly after sparking romance rumors and exciting their eagle-eyed fans with their not-so-subtle clues.
This comes after fans noticed Thompson in the background on a sun lounger in photos that the rapper had posted of herself while on holiday over the weekend, sparking rumors that they are now an item.
Their romance comes just three months after her relationship with another basketball player, Boston Celtics small forward Torrey Craig, seemingly came to an end.
She used palm tree and airplane emojis for her caption on the post, which brought in over 400,000 likes within the space of a few hours.

Over the years, the 30-year-old has been romantically linked with a number of high-profile names, including Chelsea soccer star Romelu Lukaku.
She also previously dated fellow rappers Tory Lanez — who is currently serving a 10-year prison sentence after shooting her in the foot nearly five years ago — and Moneybagg Yo, as well as songwriter Pardison 'Pardi' Fontaine.
In August of last year, the musician confirmed she was dating Craig after accidentally sharing a video of them together on TikTok.
She posted a clip of her and Craig, who was playing for the Chicago Bulls at the time, carrying out a couple's challenge while laying in bed together.
In the video, the loved-up pair fielded a series of questions on their relationship while shutting their eyes and pointing to the person.
At one stage, they were even asked who said the words 'I love you' first, with both of them pointing to the other in a video that was quickly deleted.

Gwyneth Paltrow was 'sad' when ex Brad Pitt married Jennifer Aniston, bombshell book reveals
Gwyneth Paltrow put her Oscar winning acting skills to good use when her ex-fiancé married another woman. A new biography about the Shakespeare in Love star, which also examines her relationship with Ben Affleck, claims Paltrow, 52, was mournful when Brad Pitt, 61, tied the knot with Jennifer Aniston in July 2000, but tried to keep it to herself, according to an excerpt published in US Weekly. In Gwyneth: A Biography, author Amy Odell claims that Paltrow got snappy with a reporter at the Toronto International Film Festival in September of that year when asked about her love life while promoting Duets, the film she starred in, directed by her father, the late Bruce Paltrow. 'The reporter then asked how she felt about Brad Pitt marrying Jennifer Aniston [in July of that year]. "Are you really asking me this question?" Gwyneth replied, her eyes now "daggers." "I can't comment on this kind of thing." In reality, Gwyneth confided to friends that she'd felt sad when she learned they were getting married. (She was also fond of telling them that Brad "has terrible taste in women.")' According to an excerpt shared with People, Paltrow and Pitt met when she auditioned for a role in Legends of the Fall. She didn't get that part, but Pitt reportedly suggested she play his wife in the horror classic Se7en, which began production in 1994. Paltrow had also been offered a role in the Keanu Reeves project, Feeling Minnesota, and when deciding which role to take a friend reportedly asked, 'Well, who do you want to date, Brad Pitt or Keanu Reeves?'

Daily Mail has reached out to Paltrow's representatives for a statement regarding the allegations in the book. The two got engaged in 1996, but there were doubts. After Paltrow received rave reviews for her work in 1996's Emma, she allegedly confided in her friend, makeup artist Kevin Aucoin, that Pitt 'wanted to be with her but seemed to feel threatened by her success and all the attention she received.' '[Aucoin's] advice to Gwyneth was frank, "You really need to end this,"' Odell wrote. Pitt and Paltrow called it quits in 1997. When Pitt and Aniston split in 2005, following his affair with future ex-wife Angelina Jolie, Paltrow, who had been signed as the face of Estee Lauder's Pleasures fragrance, couldn't help but make a snide remark at a dinner with executive Aerin Lauder. According to the US Weekly excerpt, 'At one dinner, the two were talking about Brad Pitt. According to someone familiar with the discussion, Gwyneth allegedly told her, "He's dumber than a sack of s–t."' This seemed to refer to their very different backgrounds. Paltrow and Pitt fell in love while working on the 1997 horror film Se7en. ''The two would walk around the set holding hands, and smoked cigarettes together outside their trailers,' according to the book; Pictured in Burbank, CA in October 1995 Gwyneth: A Biography will be released on July 29.

'There were a number of things that had happened, he was nine years older than me — he knew what he wanted, he was ready to do it and I was kind of all over the place.' Gwyneth: A Biography will be released on July 29.

WNBA All-Star Basketball Without Borders camp is opportunity for international players to be seen
Georgia Amoore went to an international basketball camp at the 2019 Final Four and was seen for the first time by Virginia Tech coaches. That led to a scholarship at the school where the Australian guard eventually led the Hokies their first Final Four in 2023. Now the Washington Mystics rookie is an instructor at a Basketball Without Borders camp, which is in its third year, that's connected to the WNBA All-Star Game this weekend. 'It's a full circle moment,' Amoore, who was the No. 6 pick by the Mystics in April, told The Associated Press on Saturday. 'It was my first time exposure, my first time getting a real scholarship offer. Now it's amazing because I can help and talk to all these girls from so many countries." More than 25 different countries and territories were represented at the camp with players coming from as far as Japan and Australia. There were dozens of college coaches ranging from Power 4 schools to mid-majors in attendance, as well as WNBA general managers. Last year's camp in Phoenix yielded more than 30 college scholarships for the players, including Bianca Quiñonez, a 6-foot-2 forward from Milagro, Ecuador, who will be headed to defending champion UConn this fall. 'If you look at the history of Basketball Without Borders, as it pertains to girls, especially, there are players who consistently go to college, consistently get drafted so that in and of itself is proof that this is important and meaningful," said camp director Allison Feaster, who is also the Boston Celtics' vice president of team operations and organizational growth. Amoore remembers that in her international camp, her current Mystics teammate Aaliyah Edwards of Canada and Seattle Storm guard Nika Muhl of Croatia participated as well. The trio became friends at the camp and Muhl stopped by Saturday afternoon. She and Amoore are both going through ACL rehabs right now. Amoore said that while there are language barriers with so many different countries represented, the teams are able to communicate through the sport. 'A lot of demonstrating a lot of kind of like sign language,' she said. 'A lot of these girls are so impressive because even if they don't speak good English, they speak well enough to be able to, you know, translate or get them anywhere.' Feaster said she has seen how these camps can change players' lives. 'When open doors you get a chance to see their levels to all of this,' she said. 'It plants the seed for them to want to continue and succeed.' All of the camp's players will attend the All-Star Game on Saturday night. ___
