Rudy Gobert, often referred to as “The Stifle Tower,” is regarded as one of the best defensive big men in basketball. Gobert’s skill on the floor is apparent, as seen by his impressive records. He has bagged three Defensive Player of the Year honors and six selections to the NBA All-Defensive First-Team. Taking center stage for the Minnesota Timberwolves at the 2023 FIBA World Cup, Gobert is poised to show off his defensive prowess and make a huge contribution to his team’s triumph.

Meanwhile, having dated Kyrie Irving and Klay Thompson, is Gobert’s $6 million worth rumored girlfriend rooting for him?

Rudy Gobert is renowned for his exceptional abilities as an NBA rim protector. The towering 7’1 center for the Minnesota Timberwolves has been making news both on and off the court. While Gobert’s skill on the court is well known, his love life has been a well-guarded secret. However, according to reports, he’s dating American internet sensation Hannah Stocking.

Stocking is rumored to have started dating Gobert in 2021. Their relationship has been private, and they’ve managed to stay out of the public eye and rumors. However, Stocking shared a photo of herself wearing a grey, baggy t-shirt with the number 27, providing a cryptic hint. This suggested a potential connection to Gobert, who famously played for France’s basketball team during the 2016 Olympics and the 2021 Olympics.

There isn’t much information about their personal lives readily available. And Gobert has not acknowledged the dating rumors yet. However, Stocking did leave a flirty comment under Gobert’s post after Team France won the silver medal in Tokyo. So chances are, Stocking is rooting for Gobert in the FIBA Cup. However, we can’t say for sure.

Meanwhile, Hannah Stocking has previously dated Kyrie Irving and Klay Thompson.

Klay Thompson and Stocking began dating in 2014. There have been no reports on how the duo met and started dating each other, as they only dated for a year. It was Stocking who made the relationship official by posting a photo of the couple in 2014. Unfortunately, things soon went downhill for the couple. The Warriors icon was accused of cheating on her as she wrote on Twitter. The scandal was further fuelled by claims that Thompson had a relationship with American model, Abigail Ratchford. This largely infuriated the NBA community.

Interestingly, Stocking had ties to Kyrie Irving before her relationship with Thompson. In August 2014, images of the two went viral, creating a stir as Irving and Thompson’s teams prepared to square off in the 2015 NBA Finals. The couple was first spotted together at a charity event in Miami, sparking rumors about their potential romance. Even though neither of them ever confirmed the rumor, they were spotted spending time together multiple times during the period. However, rumors about their alleged romantic involvement dwindled after a couple of months.
