According to reports from inside the venue and given to The New York Post, Ice Spice and Porter Jr. Arrived at Loosie’s Nightclub alongside a small group of friends. While the pair didn’t draw attention with over-the-top public displays of affection, their body language told a clear story. One onlooker described them as “obviously together,” noting that they stayed close, leaned in to talk over the music, and appeared comfortable in each other’s space throughout the night.

“They were sitting closely and chatting in each other’s ear,” a source said. “It wasn’t heavy PDA, but it was clear they came together.”
The group kept things low-key, sipping tequila rather than ordering a flashy bottle service presentation. Despite Ice Spice’s star power and Porter Jr.’s NBA profile, the night reportedly flew under the radar, with no other high-profile athletes or celebrities in attendance. The group exited the club around 2 a.m., wrapping up a night that felt intentionally discreet.
The sighting came just days after Porter Jr., 27, attended Ice Spice’s birthday celebration on New Year’s Eve at PHD Rooftop Lounge. Witnesses from that party described the vibe between the two as noticeably affectionate, with the rapper enjoying the night alongside close friends while Porter Jr. Remained by her side.
