Sudden accusation! Thompson cheated and had an affair! At 36, entering a contract year.

Wow, gossip alert~

American rapper Megan Thee Stallion (Ma Dongmei) suddenly accused Thompson of cheating on her personal social media: "Cheating while taking me to meet the whole family and acting like a couple playing house, I'm done, goodbye..."

Their relationship was officially confirmed in July last year, and they frequently showed intense affection publicly, yet parted ways within a year.

It's worth noting that Ma Dongmei also revealed Thompson's mood swings throughout the past season; she silently endured and supported him through it, only to receive "don't want to continue" and "uncertain about being faithful" as the outcome.

In summer 2024, Thompson abandoned the "one player, one city" ideal, left the Warriors after 13 years, and joined the Mavericks on a three-year $50 million deal. Unfortunately, things didn't develop as beautifully as he imagined—it turned out to be a complete gamble lost.

In the 24-25 season, Thompson's first year with the Mavericks, he played 72 games all as starter, averaging 14 points, 3.4 rebounds, 2 assists, hitting 3 three-pointers per game at 39.1% accuracy, and missed the playoffs; this season he played 69 games with 8 starts, averaging 11.7 points, 2.1 rebounds, 1.4 assists, shooting percentage dropped to 39.3%, hitting 2.9 threes per game at 38.3% accuracy, again missing the playoffs.

This season, Thompson not only completely became a bench player, resulting in career-low stats, but also ended the regular season and went home fishing again. This guy has always been highly ambitious, inevitably experiencing severe mood swings as mentioned by his ex-girlfriend Ma Dongmei, possibly even affecting his off-court life such as relationships.

At 36 years old, Thompson's next season is his contract year with a salary of $17.46 million, and he will continue facing the risk of being traded by the Mavericks, perhaps nearing the final moments of his playing career—any great story eventually has its curtain call.

Of course, Thompson holding 4 championship rings and other major honors has almost no regrets; the only pity might be missing the 75 Greatest Players selection, which has left him persistently resentful and unable to let go.

Finally, wish Thompson can soon start a new relationship, and the last one, truly finding a partner he willingly enters marriage with.
