Shaquille O'Neal has given the budding romance between basketballer Klay Thompson and rapper Megan Thee Stallion "six weeks".
On 'The Big Podcast with Shaq', co-host Adam Lefkoe, guest Mike Tyson and NBA legend O'Neal dissected the buzz around one of the summer's most talked-about celebrity pairings: Dallas Mavericks sharpshooter Thompson and the Grammy-winning rapper.
"Shaq, did you see the news about the new hot couple?" Lefkoe asked.
When Mike Tyson asked: "Who's Klay Thompson, though?" Lefkoe summarised Thompson's resume: "He's now on the Mavericks and he's with Megan Thee Stallion."
O'Neal then dropped a playful and sceptical "expiration date" on the couple's fling, predicting it'll last just "six weeks".
Tyson chimed in, arguing that the couple's bond might have more staying power than O'Neal thinks.
In July last year, Thompson signed a three-year $50 million deal to join the Dallas Mavericks.
Rumours of a Klay/Megan romance began this spring when eagle-eyed fans spotted the Mavericks guard in the background of her poolside Instagram photos.
The duo made their red carpet debut together at Megan's Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala in New York City on 16 July, with the singer praising Thompson as the "nicest person I've ever met in my life".
