We didn't expect Damian Lillard and GloRilla relationship rumors to pop up in 2024, but here we are. For those unaware, the two had social media talking after the Memphis rapper thirsted for the NBA star, although they've always downplayed that there's actually something going on there. However, the question came up yet again during the Milwaukee Bucks' media day, and Lillard had a pretty diplomatic answer. While he didn't go into much detail all things considered, this is definitely the most direct and elaborated response to this speculation so far. All we wonder is why this was so big for basketball reporters to cover...
"We know each other," Damian Lillard said of GloRIlla. "She’s an artist, I’m an artist, but as far as anything else, it ain’t nothing going on. That’s what I can tell you." Previously, she dodged questions about him from Shannon Sharpe, particularly a pointed one about her favorite basketball players. Even though this is ripe headline fodder, neither individual really took it seriously enough to create much of a conversation. Sure, they addressed it, but it seems like they don't even understand what the big deal is.
Damian Lillard Says There's "Nothing Going On" Between Him & GloRilla
However, when some beef and shade found its way into the group chat, GloRilla in particular chose to double down on this gossip. Damian Lillard's ex wife Kay'La seemed to mock rumors about the two when authorities arrested Glo for a DUI in Atlanta. She then responded by rocking a custom "GloLillard" jersey and flaunting it online, which many took as a direct rebuttal to Kay'La and not just generally playing into the meme. So it's all fun and games until the negativity rolls in.
Meanwhile, GloRilla is really looking forward to the release of her debut album Glorious, and this would follow an earlier 2024 mixtape. Maybe she could even get Damian Lillard – sorry, Dame D.O.L.L.A. – for a feature. Jokes aside, we wonder how much more this speculation will last, especially since it's been a couple of months since either celebrity's last comments on it. Is there really that much more to unearth or are we thirsty for tea?
