With the NFL season on hiatus and the NBA playoffs in full swing, many football players are making appearances at basketball games across the country.
This was notably the case in Dallas, where Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce were spotted courtside as the Dallas Mavericks secured a 3-0 series lead against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
As a three-time Super Bowl champion and Texas native, Mahomes is an avid supporter of Dallas sports. His loyalty to the Mavericks is well-known among basketball fans.
During the game, a light-hearted moment occurred involving Mahomes and Kelce. The Mavericks’ social media team captured Mahomes and his wife, Brittany, along with Kelce, cheering from the sidelines. The post on X humorously captioned the image: “Our guy Pat and Taylor Swift’s boyfriend in the house!” referring to Kelce’s relationship with the pop star rather than his own athletic achievements, which amused fans and sparked playful reactions in the comments.
Kelce’s presence in Dallas, rather than opting for leisure back home, underscores his close friendship with the Mahomes family.
Meanwhile, Taylor Swift was absent as she continues her Eras Tour in Europe.
