ALL THE SMOKE / SHOWTIME
Lakers star Austin Reaves is shaking off rumors that he dated Taylor Swift … saying straight up there’s never been a love story between him and the pop singer.
The rumor initially cropped up a few weeks ago … with some on the internet suggesting they had seen the basketball player with Swift while the two were at an Arkansas bar shortly after she had called things off with Matty Healy.
But, when Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson inquired about it all on the latest episode of the “All The Smoke” podcast … Reaves said it just ain’t true.
“I have never met her, never talked to her,” the 25-year-old told the guys on the show. It’s “all bulls***. I don’t know her.”
“I ain’t never talked to her,” he added.
As for if Reaves would be down to date her at some point in the future … Jackson actually tried to pry that answer from the hooper, but the media-savvy Reaves didn’t want to indulge.
A shooter on the court only, it seems!
