As the Paris Olympics 2024 continues to draw global interest, speculation has arisen around Kevin Durant and Angel Reese, suggesting a possible romantic connection between the NBA superstar and the Chicago Sky player. This buzz began when Durant and Reese were spotted together at a Team USA Women’s Basketball exhibition game against Germany.
They sat beside each other during the game at the O2 Arena in London, where Team USA claimed an 84-57 victory. The rumors were further fueled by the presence of Stephen Curry and his wife, Ayesha, who attended the game with them, hinting at potential double dates.
No comment on rumors
Despite the growing curiosity, neither Durant nor Reese has commented publicly on the rumors. Durant has not had a public relationship since his split from former WNBA player Monica Wright in 2014.
Reese, on the other hand, recently confirmed her single status after ending her nearly year-long relationship with Cam’ron Fletcher earlier this year, as she announced during an Instagram live session in late March 2024.
Reese has previously expressed admiration for Durant ahead of the 2024 NBA Draft, when she named him as her preferred 2v2 coed basketball partner, citing him as her favorite player and appreciating his roots in the Washington Metropolitan Area (DMV).
She has mentioned that Durant’s career and skills have been an inspiration for her own basketball journey.
