Kim, during her recent appearance on the Khloé In Wonder Land podcast, said:
“There is a basketball player that I think got traded to the Lakers, Luka.”
The reality star further said:
“There was like a fake tweet or comment on Instagram. I don’t know where it came from, but it was like, ‘Hi, you’re coming to LA. I want to learn Slovakian or whatever language.”
Kim then stated that the viral post made it look like she was hitting on Doncic, to which she completely denied. The 45-year-old further said that she has not gone to the Lakers game since.
Additionally, Kim said that the Lakers guard appeared to reply to the post as he believed that it came from her. However, Kim was unsure if his reply was real or if it was also part of the edited exchange, as she noted that the situation going viral on the internet is misleading.
The viral misleading post came from NBA Centel, a parody account that surpassed millions of views. Several accounts post misleading posts on the internet and label themselves as satire.
Meanwhile, Doncic, who was traded from the Dallas Mavericks in February last year in a blockbuster move, has been in a relationship with Anamaria Goltes for quite a while. The Lakers are currently sixth in the Western Conference with a 26-17 record and will face Doncic’s former team, the Mavericks, next.
