Devin Booker woke up and chose menace behavior. Not on the court, not in the playoffs but in the Instagram comments section with Kendall Jenner, which is apparently the most dangerous arena of all.
The Phoenix Suns star recently teased his ex-girlfriend, Kendall Jenner, by inviting her to come rub on his ankle in a comment. Yes, his ankle, not his jumper, not his stats. His ankle and just like that, the internet collapsed into chaos.
Now let’s rewind. Booker and Kendall dated on and off for years. Private jets, vacation photos, ans courtside appearances. The whole celebrity starter pack. Then they broke up, because nothing says “I’m totally over you” like publicly flirting with your famous ex in front of millions of people online.
It all started when the Fanatics honcho shared a clip from Kendall’s spot with Jimmy Fallon, where she got Tom Brady on FaceTime and picked a Super Bowl winner to bet on.
Devin commented, “I bet a million the Seahawks get that ring before you do” and he tagged Kendall, who decided she’d bet on the “underdog” New England Patriots to win Super Bowl LX.
Kendall responded, “🙄 how’s the ankle?” and Devin told her, “come rub it.”
Devin sprained his ankle in Friday’s loss to the Atlanta Hawks … and he’s expected to miss about a week … so it seems he’s got extra time for social media commenting.
Is Devin Booker trying to get her back? Maybe. Is he bored? Possibly. Is he just trolling? Highly likely. Either way, mission accomplished. Everyone noticed.
The funniest part is that Booker said all this while injured. He may not be running plays right now, but he’s definitely running social media.
In the end, it’s harmless fun. No insults. No drama. Just a little ankle-based flirting for the culture. And honestly, compared to most celebrity headlines, this one is refreshingly unserious.
