The post quickly spread across social media platforms, with fans immediately speculating about a potential relationship. The reaction was swift and intense. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), one fan had a direct question: “Are they dating?” the tweet read.
Another comment said, “Love this for @KDTrey5. He bagged him one, and she a hoop hoop.”
What caught fans’ attention most was Durant’s demeanor in the photo. One fan focused on the two-time NBA champion’s reaction. “Kd looks happy as hell,” the fan wrote.

The approval continued with one comment saying, “Aight now KD, that’s how you do it.”
How Are Kevin Durant and Liz Cambage Handling the Dating Speculation?
At the time of writing, neither Durant nor Cambage has confirmed the dating rumors. The timing comes as Durant’s former Golden State Warriors teammate, Klay Thompson, went viral for his new relationship with rapper Megan Thee Stallion.
For now, the Drake concert appearance could be as simple as two basketball stars hanging out, although fans clearly have different theories.
Cambage brings her own impressive basketball credentials to any potential relationship. She last played in the WNBA in 2022 for the Los Angeles Sparks, capping off a career that began when she was drafted as the second overall pick in the 2011 WNBA Draft.
She first laced up for the now-defunct Tulsa Shock before making stops with the Dallas Wings in 2018 and the Las Vegas Aces in 2019 and 2021.
Her final WNBA season saw her average 13 points per game with the Sparks. Between her WNBA stints, she also showcased her talents internationally, playing for the Beijing Great Wall, Shanghai Swordfish, Zhejiang Chouzhou, and the Shanxi Flame.

Meanwhile, Durant prepares for a new chapter with the Houston Rockets in the 2025-26 season after being traded in a massive seven-team deal this summer. The move continues his journeyman run that has taken him from the Seattle Supersonics (now Oklahoma City Thunder) to the Golden State Warriors, Brooklyn Nets, and, most recently, the Phoenix Suns.
As Durant settles into his new home in Houston, the basketball community will be watching both his on-court performance and any developments in his personal life. The viral Instagram story has given fans plenty to discuss while waiting for the 2025 season to begin.
