Klay Thompson refuses to talk about his relationship with Megan Thee Stallion

Klay Thompson and Megan Thee Stallion's relationship hasn't been all private. Stallion has been adorably documenting the time of her life with her boyfriend, and even shared some with the fans on social media.

However, when it was a business day, Thompson refused to talk about his romantic life. During the Dallas Mavericks Media Day, Klay Thompson was asked about her relationship with Stallion.

"I'm not going to talk about that. But I will say that every summer doesn't change for me," Thompson said. "Because I know what it takes to go the distance, and there's really no such things as an offseason. The summer time is just as strenuous as the season, and you have to train as if you're going to play 100 games a year and that's what I do."

Despite his relationship dominating the NBA news this offseason, Klay Thompson was regularly seen working out in the gym. In July, during his workout with Chris Brickly, Thompson made headlines after making 72 consecutive 3-pointers.
