Before Kevin Durant was creeping on Rihanna on Twitter, the Golden State Warriors forward who is currently on a quest to win his first NBA championship, once dated Rachel Lindsay, the star of this season of “The Bachelorette”, while the two attended the University of Texas.

“They broke up when she went to law school,” the insider told Us, adding that the split was amicable. “It was a pretty serious relationship.”
Lindsay, 31, was a sports medicine major at Texas, while the 6-foot-9-inch Durant, now 28, was showing what he can do on the basketball court, averaging 25 points per game, winning various national accolades while leading the Longhorns to the second round of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship.
Lindsay has appeared twice on the ABC reality show. She was a fan favorite in Season 21 of The Bachelor but didn’t earn enough roses to win Nick Viall’s heart. This season she is currently the newest contestant on ‘The Bachlorette,’ which started Season 13 last month.
Wonder if Durant still has Lindsay on his mind now that the two are in the national spotlight at the same time.
