Klay Thompson has been the talk of the town over the last week, but for all the wrong reasons. His partner of almost a year, Megan Thee Stallion, went all guns blazing and accused the Dallas Mavericks guard of cheating on her.
Some social media accounts speculated that Lexie Brown was the third person that was involved in the relationship. But the Seattle Storm guard was quick to deny the accusation on April 27. Now, she has spoken out against Thompson and Megan again.
Lexie Brown Speaks Out On Klay Thompson-Megan Thee Stallion Drama
Brown was dragged into the drama between Megan and Thompson. She mentioned during an interview with FOX News:
WNBA player Lexie Brown, who was the subject of recent viral affair rumors with NBA star Klay Thompson, spoke out to me against Klay for not disputing the rumors himself. Lexie says she has received death threats and even her family has been harassed after the rumors started. pic.twitter.com/tob2d9TA1b

“I was getting threats on my life. I was getting threats on my health,” Brown said. “My family started getting comments and threats from people. I’ve had to hire security to travel with me places. So it got to a point where I was scared for myself.”
“The fact that I’m still the only one that is defending my name, I just have no idea how to process that, and that’s the last thing that I’m struggling to process is that there’s this massive outcry for protecting Black women, and nobody has mentioned Lexie Brown’s name in any of those conversations.”
Watching this situation go from this app to what it is now in real time is pretty crazy https://t.co/cIAxhTrucF

Fans online were quick to defend Brown’s name, especially after her troubling comment. Ahmed, a popular Lakers/Dodgers fan on X, said, “Watching this situation go from this app to what it is now in real time is pretty crazy.”
Hot take:
There was nothing Klay could do to stop this. If he came out and said it wasn’t her he’d look like he was covering it up and it would’ve brought even more smoke. I feel bad for her because I bet it’s mainly hurt women coming for her. https://t.co/B93tEsJooJ— Terrance 🦅 (@spiketeejoint) April 30, 2026
Terrance, a sports analyst, however, stood up for the Dallas guard. He wrote on X, “There was nothing Klay could do to stop this.

The internet is a wild place. Leave Lexie alone. https://t.co/MIyVhJTNcv

Another X user, Ricky G, sent a message to Thompson, to clear Brown’s name. He said, “Klay step up and protect this lady name.”
People are big time weirdos for bringing her into a situation she has NOTHING TO DO WITH and running with it…then, sending death threats on top of it. Mental illness, tbh. We love you, Lexie. https://t.co/MDqtn4eSpd

Vic, another basketball fan, sent a heartfelt message to Brown, “People are big-time weirdos for bringing her into a situation she has NOTHING TO DO WITH and running with it…then, sending death threats on top of it. Mental illness, tbh. We love you, Lexie.”
Ashley Nicole Moss, a renowned basketball analyst for CBS Sports, also weighed in on the situation.
taking a rumor and running with it to the point where my friend is receiving death threats for something she had ZERO involvement with to defend someone who doesn’t know you exist is insane.
btw there were NEVER any close friend stories. you guys are blatant liars. https://t.co/miyVUvQR2f

What’s interesting is that Brown did claim to know Thompson and even called him a ‘friend,’ but said it was only because they are both pro basketball players. But with Megan, on the other hand, Brown has firmly confirmed that she has no relationship with the rapper whatsoever.
Both Thompson and Megan have yet to respond to Brown’s recent comments, and it remains unclear whether they will in the future. But it is worrying to witness the hate Brown has been receiving over a situation she apparently had no connection to.
