Hotties, there might be a new flame in Megan Thee Stallion's life! 

The rap queen has possibly added a fresh face to her roster. On Tuesday (Aug. 27), a video surfaced showing the artist getting cozy with Torrey Craig, the Chicago Bulls power forward. The footage displays the duo lying side-by-side in bed. Megan is rocking a white and red top, while Torrey appears shirtless.

So, who is this mystery man?

Torrey Craig plays as a forward in the NBA, typically as a small forward or power forward. The athlete attended the University of South Carolina Upstate (USC Upstate) for college. After completing his college career, he was not draftedin the NBA Draft. Instead, Craig began his professional career overseas and in the NBA G League before eventually signing with an NBA team. He made his NBA debut with the Denver Nuggets in 2017 after being signed as an undrafted free agent.

Let's take a closer look at Craig's recent stats:

  • 2023-24 Season (Chicago Bulls): Played 53 games, averaging 19.8 minutes, 5.7 points, 43.0% field goal percentage, 39.2% from beyond the arc, 4.1 rebounds, 1.1 assists, and 0.6 steals per game.

  • 2022-23 Season (Phoenix Suns): Played 79 games, averaging 24.7 minutes, 7.4 points, 45.6% field goal percentage, 39.5% from three, 5.4 rebounds, 1.5 assists, and 0.6 steals per game.

  • 2021-22 Season (Phoenix Suns): Played 27 games, averaging 20.8 minutes, 6.9 points, 45.0% field goal percentage, 32.3% from three, 4.3 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 0.8 steals per game.

The 29-year-old baller has a history of dating in the spotlight, including a rumored fling with reality TV star Nicole Zavala. Megan, on the other hand, has been linked to fellow rappers Tory LanezMoneybagg Yo, and songwriter Pardison' Pardi' Fontaine.

Fans were quick to react to the video of Megan and Torrey – which quickly went viral. Reactions ranged from excitement over Meg's new potential love interest to playful jabs at the situation. 

Here's what some fans had to say:

"She love dudes with a Tor at the beginning of they name lol," wrote a fan. "I love this for them," said another

Although some fans are thrilled to see the hitmaker back on the dating scene, others think she is moving on too fast. Last August, Megan's ex, Tory Lanez, was sentenced to 10 years in prison for assault. He was found guilty of shooting the rapper in the foot in July 2020 after leaving a party at Kylie Jenner's home. Following the incident, Megan was hospitalized and had to undergo surgery. 

According to NPR, he was found guilty of all three charges – assault with a firearm, illegal possession of a firearm, and negligent discharge of a gun for shooting the victim. 

Megan did not appear in court during the sentencing process. During the trial, she was seeing Pardison "Pardi" Fontaine, but the two called it quits in 2023. Shortly after the breakup, she was spotted with soccer star Romelu Lukaku in Italy attending a luxury wedding. 

Despite the buzz, neither Megan nor Craig have commented on the viral video. Whether it's just a playful moment or the start of something more, we’re here for it! Meg’s been on tour for the past six months, so a little fun and good company are always welcome.

Stay tuned for more updates on this potential new power couple!
