Tristan Thompson NBA Career At Risk? Khloe Kardashian Fans Attempt to Ruin His Gameplay
During his most recent NBA game, fans attempted to ruin Tristan Thompson's game by continually screaming 'Khloe' when he was at the free throw line.
Tristan Thompson, 30, was heckled by supporters of his ex-girlfriend Khloe Kardashian, 37, on Monday, February 28 while playing against the Miami Heat.
The Chicago Bulls player was standing at the free throw line and preparing to shoot when fans began shouting Khloe's name out loud, as seen in THIS VIDEO posted on Reddit. Fans attempted to divert attention away from the NBA star by bringing up his renowned ex-girlfriend, with whom he strayed on many occasions.
However, the taunting was ineffective, as Tristan made the basket. The Bulls ultimately lost 112-99, which must have made Khloe's fans delighted. For now, the athlete certainly got his NBA career handled - not losing focus when focus is all he has.
Tristan has been heckled on the basketball court previously for his conflict with Khloe. Indeed, a fan was ejected from a Sacramento Kings game in November 2021 (during Tristan's tenure with the organization) for bringing up the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star from the stands.
later transferred to the Bulls after the Kings benched him during their Jan. 4 game against the Los Angeles Lakers. That was because of the baby drama involving Maralee Nichols, the fitness model who had Tristan's son, Angelou, in December.
Khloe has ended her relationship with Tristan following his latest infidelity episode. Tristan apologized to Khloe on Instagram after a paternity test proved he was the father of the child with Maralee.

"You don't deserve the heartache and humiliation I have caused you. You don't deserve the way I have treated you over the years," he said. "My actions certainly have not lined up with the way I view you. I have the utmost respect and love for you. Regardless of what you may think. Again, I am so incredibly sorry," he added.
Tristan is presently a Bulls player while also co-parenting True Thompson, 3, with Khloe. According to a source previously quoted by HollywoodLife, while Tristan's time with the Bulls "will serve as a welcome diversion" from his personal life drama, "he still expects to see True as frequently as possible." Maralee, 31, said the pro athlete hasn't even seen his third kid, Angelou.
"Despite news reports stating otherwise, Tristan Thompson has done nothing to support their son," a rep for Maralee said to Hollywood Life in a statement on Feb. 14. "He has not made any attempt to meet their son, nor has he provided any financial assistance," the rep added.
