Shaquille O’Neal, Klay Thompson with Megan Thee Stallion

Shaquille O’Neal doesn’t seem to believe Klay Thompson’s relationship with Megan Thee Stallion will last that long. In fact, he reckons Klay will not go into the 2025/26 NBA season with the rapper as his partner.

The former Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat center riffed on the surprise couple during a recent episode of his podcast, ‘The Big Podcast with Shaq,’ with co-host Adam Lefkoe bringing them up.

Shaq didn’t say too much, but he made it clear that Klay and Megan would not go past “six weeks.”

That’s all he said after the topic came up and, pressed for clarity, he repeated himself.

“Six weeks!”

Mike Tyson, a guest on the show, gave the new celebrity couple a better chance.

Klay and Megan appear to have something serious going on and are definitely one of the hottest couplings across sports and entertainment at the moment.

The hip-hop star recently posted a playful workout video showing them in the gym, joking that the Dallas Mavericks sharpshooter was plotting her downfall during Russian twists and teasing him for holding her butt while she was working on the pull-up bar.

“I don’t think I needed that much assistance, but I think that was his favorite part of the workout,” she quipped.

A few days prior, they showed up on the red carpet at Megan’s Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala in New York City.

Megan referred to Klay as “the nicest person I’ve ever met,” while he praised her charitable work.

Of course, time will tell whether Shaquille O’Neal is right. While the relationship might not go the distance, a six-week period doesn’t seem realistic.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.

From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
