Over the weekend, the rumor mill was buzzing with reports that Kevin Durant had put a ring on it, after a photo emerged of the WNBA star wearing a huge rock on her finger, and the reports were confirmed last night.
After the Lynx game, Star Tribune writer Kent Youngblood posted to Twitter:
Post-game Monica Wright confirmed reports that she and Kevin Durant are engaged. So there’s that.
Seattle Storm forward Tina Thompson also spilled the beans beforehand when she tweeted:
Super CONGRATS to @monnie22 and @KDTrey5 two of my #faves so so so happy for you all! I love, love!
What’s super cute about this story is that back in 2011, Kevin Durant tweeted that he needed a basketball player girlfriend, while referencing the movie “Love & Basketball.” He not only snagged his basketball player girlfriend, but she ironically has the same name as the lead character in the movie.
They say “ask and you will receive…”
