Are Devin Booker and Suni Lee dating?

No, Devin Booker has not taken Suni Lee on any romantic night out in Paris. For all the curious Kendall Jenner fans, Booker has not decided to go the ‘love way’ this time.

In recent days, social media has been buzzing with speculation regarding an alleged romantic encounter between Team USA Olympians, Devin Booker and Suni Lee, during the ongoing 2024 Paris Olympics. A viral tweet suggested that the pair were seen enjoying a 'romantic' night out in Paris, raising eyebrows and fueling fan discussions. 


Devin Booker, the NBA star, and Suni Lee, the talented gymnast, did share a photo together in Paris, which was posted on Booker's Instagram story. The image captured the two athletes in a friendly pose, with Booker's arm around Lee. Some observers interpreted this interaction as more than just a casual meetup, especially given the context of the ongoing Olympic Games.

However, it is essential to clarify that there is no confirmation regarding the nature of their outing being labeled as 'romantic,' as insinuated by the viral tweet that sparked the online frenzy. Athletes commonly interact and support each other during major events like the Olympics, and it is not unusual for them to share moments of camaraderie and friendship. 


However, the X/Twitter page claiming the romantic involvement between Booker and Lee is a parody account with the name NBA Centel. The account has a long history of making viral news on hot topics. Just like they claimed that Tyler Herro once Punched Miami Heat’s Jimmy Butler.

Devin Booker's presence at the Paris Olympics was not solely to accompany Suni Lee; he was there among other Team USA basketball players to cheer on Lee and her teammate, Simone Biles, during the Gymnastics Artistic Individual All-Around event. Lee secured a bronze medal in the competition, showcasing her exceptional talent, while Biles made history by winning the gold. 


Booker, visibly inspired by the athletes' achievements, expressed admiration for Biles, highlighting her unprecedented success on the Olympic stage. His supportive comments reflected the camaraderie and respect shared among the athletes representing Team USA in different disciplines.

The social media reactions to Devin Booker and Suni Lee's rendezvous in Paris have been varied, with some fans speculating about a potential romantic connection between the two athletes and others dismissing such assumptions. It is important to remember that these public figures are entitled to maintain their privacy and personal relationships outside their professional endeavors.

In conclusion, the viral tweet claiming a 'romantic' night out between Devin Booker and Suni Lee in Paris appears to be unfounded and misleading. While the athletes have been seen sharing moments together during the Olympics, there is no concrete evidence to support the speculation of a romantic relationship between them.
