Things seem to be getting serious between NBA star Klay Thompson and his girlfriend, Megan Thee Stallion

Proving that the couple's relationship is taking a serious note, the three-time Grammy-winner and Thompson's mother, Julie Thompson, were spotted sitting courtside at the Mavericks pre-season game against the Lakers in Los Angeles on Wednesday night. 

Megan donned a white tank top paired with denim jeans, white stiletto heels, and a wrist full of bracelets, while Thompson's mother sported a green blazer and black pants. 

The Dallas Mavs shooting guard, 35, and the rapper, 30, hard launched their relationship over the summer and have not shied away from the spotlight since. 

Klay Thompson and Megan Thee Stallion's relationship timeline 

It's still unclear exactly how the couple first met, but Megan Thee Stallion quietly launched their relationship in June. The rapper posted a poolside photo shoot on social media, and eagled-eyed fans were quick to take note of Thompson sitting off to the distance in the background. 

One month later, Thompson confirmed the dating rumors when he shared a photo kissing the "WAP" rapper on Instagram, sending fans into a frenzy. 

"I love this," one user commented.

"A HOT NEW BOMBSHELL ENTERED THE VILLAAAA," another wrote. 

"Take care of our girl," a third added.

The two have been going strong ever since. 

Thompson publicly supported his new girlfriend at her Pete & Thompson Foundation charity gala over the summer, and the couple have been spotted enjoying plenty of quality time together ever since. From fishing together out at sea, to gym sessions, and cozy dinners at home, the pair seem inseparable. 

The NBA star is currently in his second season with the Mavericks after spending his first 13 years playing professional basketball for the Golden State Warriors. 

Thompson helped lead the Mavs to a 121-94 win over the Lakers this week.
