Kim Kardashian supports Tristan Thompson at his Lakers game
Kim Kardashian made a rare move on Monday night.
The 42-year-old reality TV star posted to her Insta Stories a photo of a radiant Tristan Thompson while on the court for his team the Los Angeles Lakers in downtown Los Angeles.
The SKIMS founder, who attended the game with mom Kris Jenner, wrote an encouraging note accompanying the image that read “YESSSSS GOOOOO LAKERS.” In the past, she was critical of Tristan.
Shortly after, however, Kanye West’s ex-wife deleted the post for unknown reasons.
Still, this post is another sign that Thompson has been welcomed back into the Kardashian/Jenner family after cheating on Khloe Kardashian, 38, multiple times, even fathering another child while their surrogate was carrying their second baby.
And this could indicate that the 32-year-old athlete — who lives two houses away from Khloe in Hidden Hills, California — is back together with the Good American designer.

Khloe and Tristan have two children together: daughter True, age five, and a son reportedly named Tatum.
Khloe also showed support for Tristan when he joined the Lakers, adding a “like” to a photo of him in the Lakers jersey on Instagram. Khloe’s brother Rob Kardashian also hit the like button.
And Tristan has liked some of Khloe’s sexy bikini Instagram pinup shots this year.
On Monday, Kim wore an I Love Nerds crop top with ripped, acid-washed light blue jeans and strappy high heels, eye-catching jewelry, and her slicked-back hair as she took in the match. She sat at the court with her pink Hermes purse under her seat.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashians veteran was with girlfriend Sarah Staudinger who wore a brown strapless top with matching slacks and brown boots.
There was also Kim’s mother Kris Jenner who wore a black leather jacket.
It was a playoff basketball game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Golden State Warriors at the Crypto.com Arena on May 8, 2023 in Los Angeles.
Tristan wore his purple uniform and looked like a real Laker, even though he didn’t get time on the track.

Khloe was not present at the game.
Khloe and Tristan have gotten closer this year.
Thompson now lives in Los Angeles as he plays with the Los Angeles Lakers, so they spend more time together.
Khloe supports Tristan joining the LA Lakers. She wants him to have a career,” a source told People.
Having Tristan on the road again worries Khloe. Then all the cheating happened in the past.”
And he’s also gotten closer to Khloe as his family is getting smaller. His mother Andrea Thompson died in January 2023 in Toronto, Canada. Khloe attended her funeral and penned a sweet social media tribute for Andrea.

And he’s there for their son, too: Khloe was seen holding their son, who is reportedly named Tatum
Khloe and Tristan became close again after his mother [Andrea] passed away,” the insider said.
“They celebrated Easter with their children and her family.”
And because he’s such a great dad to their two kids, it “makes it harder to completely close the door on anything romantic,” the source added.
On his birthday, Khloe shared a sweet post for him saying he was the “best dad.”
According to the second source, Thompson is once again going all out to try to prove himself – not just to Khloe, but to the entire family. He has also grown closer to Kris [Jenner] after the loss of his own mother.’
He first got busted for cheating just before Khloe welcomed True, but she took him back. While pregnant with their second child via surrogate, Thompson confirmed that he had fathered a son named Theo with Maralee Nichols. He then publicly apologized saying, “Khloe, you don’t deserve this.”
In addition to Theo, Thompson also shares a six-year-old son, Prince, with ex-girlfriend Jordan Craig.
