Dallas Mavericks star Klay Thompson and rapper Megan Thee Stallion may be the latest couple on the block, but Shaquille O’Neal is pessimistic about how long their relationship will last. 

Per the Daily Mail, O’Neal, popularly known as Shaq, touched on the couple’s relationship when their topic came up on his Big Podcast with Adam Lefkoe and guest Mike Tyson. The retired NBA star jokingly used a fictional betting line to predict how long their relationship would last.

“Six weeks. The line is six weeks,” Shaq, 53, said. It’s all up to Thompson, 35, and Megan, 30, to prove the NBA Hall of Famer wrong. 

Shaq’s comments on their relationship came after the couple made their red carpet debut at her inaugural Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala at Gotham Hall in New York City last Wednesday, Face2Face Africa reported.

Megan in an interview with Page Six at the event had good things to say about her beau when she was asked about their relationship. The Cobra rapper went as far to state that Thompson was the kindest person she had ever dated. 

“I have never dated somebody so kind,” Megan told the news outlet. “This is my first relationship where I’ve ever been with somebody who’s genuinely a nice person, and he makes me genuinely happy.”

She added: “I just never dated somebody like him before and I’m just grateful that he’s here by my side and he feels the same way about me.”

Megan gushing about Thompson came after she initially dropped a subtle hint about their relationship in a photo she posted on Instagram. In the photo taken at a pool, Megan is seen posing in a bikini while an individual appearing to be Thompson is spotted sitting in the background. 

Thompson similarly took to Instagram to share a photo of them kissing
