The 2024 Paris Olympics has been the starting and ending point of several stories. But there’s one story that people were not ready for. And that’s whether Devin Booker is dating Suni Lee or not. Well, fans have reasons for speculating.
Booker took to his Instagram stories to share a photo with the women’s gymnastics Paris bronze medalist Suni Lee. This snap instantly went viral and took the Internet by storm. The fans were quick to establish a Booker-Lee linkup and all kinds of speculations like “She’s a sun that’s why her name is Suni” began buzzing around. Fans connected her name to Booker’s Phoenix Suns.
It’s not just a deep dive into a mere frivolous guess game, but there are some solid facts to have a closer look at. With Lee’s bronze medal win in Paris alongside Biles’ gold, came a barrage of congratulatory posts. One of the most special ones was where she was tagged by none other than Booker himself, who wrote, “One of one.” And now the viral snaps are doing the rounds. So is something really brewing and are we anticipating a surprise revelation somewhere around the corner?
Well, if you take the fans by their word, they believe there’s a huge possibility. However, let’s rein in the excitement as neither Devin Booker nor Suni Lee have officially acknowledged a romantic relationship so far. Also, there have been no previous rumors that connected the two.

Additionally, as per the information available, Suni Lee is dating USC football player Jaylin Smith. Initially, she even posted pictures of them together, but deleted them when the Hmong American community didn’t support the interracial relationship.
But coming back to Devin Booker, there’s something else that has kept the sparks ignited. Some speculate that his past might be making a comeback again.
Is Booker back with Kendall Jenner?
As per rumors, Devin Booker has previously dated Jordyn Woods. But his most high-profile relationship was with model, Kendall Jenner. It’s no secret that his last romantic episode with Jenner was particularly tumultuous, marked by heady ups and downs. The two, however, decided to call off their relationship in June 2022 following a falling out that imploded during Kourtney Kardashian’s wedding.
According to Elle and The People, Booker, and Jenner seem to be over each other after a short patch-up phase as Jenner reconciled with her ex, Bad Bunny. The two also had been spotted together on a couple of dates in Puerto Rico and Paris as recently as June this year.
Now this may rightly be read as a coincidence of Olympic proportions, but the cameras went flashing as Kendall Jenner and her ex-boyfriend Devin Booker attended the women’s gymnastics individual all-around final at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Separately. Just to make it clear, they were sitting on opposite sides of the packed Bercy Arena.
Jenner could be seen watching the match with bestie Fai Khadra, while Booker had his fellow NBA star Stephen Curry to keep him company. No brownie points for guessing that this was the very same event where Suni Lee bagged her coveted bronze medal.
It doesn’t seem like Booker is back with Jenner. Rumors of him dating Suni Lee also don’t have much substance. What do you think?
