Things seem to be heating up quickly between Dallas Mavericks star Klay Thompson and his new girlfriend, rapper Megan Thee Stallion. 

The NBA star, 35, and "Savage" singer, 30, made their first public appearance on the red carpet at Stallion's Pete & Thomas Foundation Charity Gala at Gotham Hall in New York City on Wednesday, July 16, and new video footage has just surfaced of the Mavs star raving about a luxury watch that the rapper has bought for him during the event. 

At the beginning of a clip shared on X, Thompson is seen sitting in a chair at the gala, rocking a stunning, luxe silver watch on his left wrist.

"The evening has just begun too, it's just a little past 8, oh boy. We got a night ahead of us," Thompson, who was dressed sharp in a traditional black-and-white tux, said, as he gazed at the time on his new watchpiece.

The man videoing the clip then complimented the piece of jewelry, telling Thomspon, "That's a good watch too." 

"Thank you, brother. Megan gifted me this," Thompson replied. "Yeah. What a sweet lady," he added, with a big smile on his face.

Fans react to Megan Thee Stallion's $300K gift to Klay Thompson

As soon as the clip hit social media, fans were quick to notice how happy Klay Thompson looked while showing off the stunning watch gifted to him by Megan Thee Stallion. 

While it hasn't been confirmed, one user suggested on X that the 6-foot-6 shooting guard's new watch could be a $300,000 Audemars Piguet Royal Oak.

Others couldn't believe the rapper gave the NBA star such a luxurious gift at the early stage of their relationship.

"They've been together 2 days wtf," one person commented on X.

"Sugar momma," another person wrote.

The 30-year-old rapper isn't the only one in the relationship handing out gifts, though.

Earlier this month, Megan Thee Stallion and Thompson made their romance official on TikTok after the rapper shared a now-deleted TikTok video unwrapping several Labubu dolls gifted to her by the NBA player. 

During the sweet unboxing video, Megan could be seen sitting on Thompson's lap.

She also referred to him as "baby" at one point in the clip, as she thanked him for showering her with gifts. 

Before that, she sent social media up in flames when she shared a poolside dump on Instagram that appeared to show Thompson casually sitting in a pool chair in the background.
