In the locker room video, Brian told Paxson, “There’s a story going on, on social media, that there was a famous person in your DMs by the name of Miss Kylie Jenner.”

The Tar Heels guard replied, “I can’t speak on it,” before adding, “No comment.”

He then winkingly added, “En route to LA next week though.”

The comedian astutely mentioned, “You know what? The Jenners live in LA.”

Paxson repeated, “No comment.”

The video was promptly reposted on a Kardashian-dedicated Reddit board.

The post was titled, “So Kylie is rumored to be seeing this basketball player Paxson Wojcik and this is his response to the rumors.”

The author speculated, “They’re [definitely] hooking up. She’s over Timothee I guess? Maybe this guy is willing to be seen in public with her.”

In the comment thread, one fan wrote, “A college student. Gimme a break.”

Another person wrote, “screaming. lol she’s a cougar at 26 and fully looks the part.”

“So she’s done with little malnourished Victorian boys and on to athletes now,” added a third.

One Redditor mentioned, “He was in one of Kim’s Skims campaign.

“Kylie followed him then unfollowed him,” added a second.

Another commenter asked, “She broke up with timothee???” to which a fourth person responded, “I honestly can’t keep up. They’re together then broken up then together again every other day. Who really knows.”

Another fan speculated that Paxon was “just clout chasing with a ‘no comment,'” adding, “I feel like younger guys would totally do this lol.”

WHAT’S BEST?

Recently, Kylie seemed to boast a positive attitude amid her speculated split from Timothée Chalamet, 28.

In a short TikTok video, the Los Angeles native showed off her cleavage in an eye-catching black outfit that featured a low-cut neckline.

She recorded herself whipping around her brunette hair and looking at ease as she spun around in circles.

“I just want the best for you,” Kylie mouthed as she lipsynced to audio that was taken from a conversation between herself and her older sister Khloe Kardashian, 39.

She continued, “And I think you deserve the world.”

The uplifting post came after speculation swirled about her breaking up with Timothée.

In mid-March, the makeup mogul fueled split rumors when she was seen at the Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty without the actor.

Kylie was also absent from Timothée’s promotional tour for Dune: Part Two.

The recently released Dune sequel has earned over $500 million worldwide, according to Box Office Mojo.

The film’s popularity caused fans to theorize that Timothée’s rising fame and busy schedule might not leave much time for romance.

RELATIONSHIP TIMELINE

Earlier this month, fans speculated Kylie and Timothée called it quits after the former E! star seemingly dodged questions about the pair’s relationship.

She avoided addressing comments that she supposedly “changed her style” for the Wonka star, during a New York Times interview.

Kylie Jenner is the youngest of Kris Jenner‘s children. She is best known for starring alongside her sisters on the Kardashians reality shows, while also being a model, socialite and the founder of multiple businesses: Kylie Cosmetics, Kylie Skin, Kylie Baby, and Kylie Swim.

Kylie explained, “I wouldn’t say my style is affected by just one person, but rather who I am and what I feel comfortable in,” before adding, “It’s definitely evolved over time.”

Kylie and Timothée’s relationship became public knowledge in April 2023.

They were then captured displaying PDA at a Beyoncé concert, at the US Open, and later during the Golden Globe Awards.

Kylie shares her children Stormi, 6, and Aire, 2, with her ex-partner Travis Scott, 32, whom she split from in December 2022 shortly before her relationship with Timothée began.
