Are NBA players frequently linked to adult actresses? More often than one might expect. In the past decade, several women from the adult film industry have reportedly named players like Kevin Durant, Michael Porter Jr., Dwight Howard, and LaMelo Ball as having been in relationships with them. Most of these claims have often gone unproven, with the players themselves reportedly not paying much attention to them. As the pre-season gets underway, an old claim by Teanna Trump is making waves online.

Sitting down for an interview with podcaster and internet personality Adam 22, the now 29-year-old Teanna Trump talked about an incident that, according to her, catalyzed her entry into the adult industry. She revealed how a “Pacers player” approached her on Instagram decades ago. The conversation eventually led to a fling. Despite claiming to have pictures and videos of her and the player, Trump didn’t reveal the name due to her “no snitching” policy.

In the two years since the interview captured social media users’ attention, speculation has run rampant regarding the identity of the player Teanna Trump was involved with. While Lance Stephenson emerged as one of the top contenders, Paul George also garnered attention. The player, who was associated with the Indiana Pacers during the 2011-12 season when the fling allegedly occurred, continued to represent the team until the 2017 season. Moreover, George achieved more accolades with the Pacers than with any other franchise, earning four All-Star honors, three selections to the All-NBA Third Team, and various distinctions on the All-Defensive teams, making “Pacers player” a fitting description for his most memorable tenure.

It’s important to note that this is not the first time that Teanna Trump has made an unproven claim towards a member of the NBA fraternity. In 2019, she tweeted, “Your player needs to PAY ME what he owes me. @okcthunder.” While the adult film actress was quick to delete the tweet, she had already caught the attention of NBA fans. After analyzing the roster consisting of Chris Paul, Steven Adams, Shai-Gilgeous Alexander, and Dennis Schroder back then, discussion ran rampant on who the mysterious Oklahoma City Thunder player was. Five years later, there’s still no answer.

In the two years since the interview, Paul George has reportedly not given out any statements that highlighted a possible relationship between him and Teanna Trump. One significant reason the small forward’s name emerged above the others is his previous link to another adult actress.. However, the actress has indicated that she was more of a friend to the NBA star than a romantic interest.

Did Former Adult Actress Lisa Ann help Paul George recover from his injury?

Back in 2014, Paul George had one of the worst injuries of his basketball career. During a Team USA scrimmage, he landed awkwardly on his right leg and snapped the bottom part in half. The severity of the ailment forced George to spend the next eight months in recovery, which in turn made him absent for most of the 2014-15 NBA season. However, his return to the court in April 2015 was not the only story about him that went viral. Former Adult actress Lisa Ann held a sign that read “Welcome back PG.”

It took a couple of months for fans to know the full story behind that viral picture. An exclusive January 2016 profile of Lisa Ann revealed her transition to fantasy football and her growing interest in the world of sports. It also revealed how Ann began considering herself as “a confidante and mentor for athletes.” Her revelations eventually reached a point where “she mentions Indiana Pacers basketball player Paul George as someone she counseled after he lost most of last year to a gruesome broken leg suffered during an offseason scrimmage.”

Paul George did not reportedly shine a light on these remarks either. Despite the silence, his alleged connection with Lisa Ann fueled speculation about the player’s possible involvement with Teanna Trump. However, the claim continues to remain unproven to this date.
