RUMOR: Shakira Is Dating A Big-Time NBA Star

Shakira performing.JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA – JUNE 10: Shakira performs a song during the kick-off celebration concert for the 2010 FIFA World Cup at the Orlando Stadium on June 10, 2010 in Soweto, South Africa.
Rumors of Shakira possibly hooking up with an NBA star have been doing the rounds this week as the playoffs continue to heat up.

The Denver Nuggets await their opponents as the Eastern Conference affair between the Miami Heat and Boston Celtics isn’t quite done yet, with the latter winning their first game of the series on Tuesday night.

“We’re gonna listen to some music. We’re gonna drink some beers. … We’re gonna smile, we’re gonna be in this thing together. … And we’re gonna go get one on the road.”

 

Jimmy Butler scored 29 points on the night yet wasn’t quite himself as the Heat suffered a 116-99 home defeat and are now set to return to Boston with a 3-1 series lead. Butler has been the man in these playoffs as he’s led the Heat on an improbable run after they had to claw their way to the postseason via the Play-In tournament. And he’s since attracted some attention from the aforementioned pop star.

Shakira, who lives in Miami, was spotted at Game 3 on Sunday and has apparently made an advance toward Butler, so to speak. According to the Shakirastuff fan account, the world-famous singer followed the forward on Instagram and he’s since followed back.

While that hardly means there’s anything going on, fans are running with it.

 

If Jimmy dates Shakira he’s an instant hall of famer in the #305

Following rumors he hooked up with Rachel Nichols in the bubble back in 2020, could Jimmy Buckets actually pull this off?

Do note that Shakira and Rachel kinda look alike. But Jimmy should only have one thing on his mind right now.
