I’m going to let you in on a little-known secret: when you become a millionaire around the same time you’re legally able to drink alcohol and you are one of the most promising young professional athletes on the planet, interest from attractive women comes in distracting and perpetual waves.

21-year-old Ben Simmons has become the runaway favorite to win Rookie of the Year–so much so that you’d need to wager $2,000 just to win $100. But, we’re not here to talk about basketball. We’re here to talk about CHICKS, MAN!

RnB singer Tinashe evidently is sweating the Sixers star heavy, if social media cues are the metric. Rumors began swirling that Simmons and the 25-year-old “2 On” singer were hooking up when Tinashe hinted at it in an interview on Valentine’s Day, blushing while saying Simmons was her favorite player.

Most recently, Tinashe posted a scandalous photo in her hotel room under the caption “Where’s Bae?” After tagging Simmons’ Instagram handle in the comment section, he responded.

Sidenote: How about LeBron liking Simmons’ photo of him dunking on his team en route to a win? I would never say that Jordan wouldn’t do that but Jordan wouldn’t do that.

Anyway, it appears that Ben Simmons and Tinashe are smitten, so lets all feel good for them until they break up in 3 months and move on. Hey, I said athletes have no problem getting the women, never said they were good at keeping them. Opportunity, man. The great divider.

The anti-drug people gave him a $50 savings bond for his brave contribution to crime-fighting, and upon the bond’s maturity 10 years later, he used it to buy his very first bag of marijuana.
