I have no idea where the NYDN came up with this piece of gossip but according to them, Khloe Kardashian has her eyes on Portland Trailblazers center Robin Lopez. The Kardashian family of course are no strangers to NBA players with Kim Kardashian marrying and divorcing Kris Humphries in 72 days and Khloe herself still going through a divorce with Lamar Odom. Robin however is an odd name to pull out of a hat considering his unkempt appearance and he’s relatively unknown outside of the basketball world. Then again Kris wasn’t well known either, maybe Khloe was trying to go a different route? I don’t know but when asked about the rumored new duo, Lopez had a hilarious response.

“You know, I’m not exactly certain of the veracity of those rumors,” said Lopez. “But what I can comment on, I suppose, is the fabrication of that power couple by the press. Obviously they were looking for two people with a lot of influence on popular culture, on the youth, and they were looking for two movers and shakers. Frankly, I’m not surprised they came up with my name.”
And now that he’s sideline for at least the next six weeks, Lopez, a native of North Hollywood, said he’s willing to try out the glamorous, fast-paced lifestyle that surely goes hand in hand with dating a Kardashian.
“I’ve got a lot more free time for magazine shoots, guest hosting duties on TV shows and stuff,” said Lopez. “They can contact my agent if they want to. I’m also the associate video guy. That’s one of my new duties. Got a wealth of opportunities even though I’ve only got one hand right now.”
