Veteran NBA big man Tristan Thompson has been keeping up appearances despite being a fringe rotation player at 32 years old. Most recently, the NBA champion went viral for his appearance in an upcoming episode of The Kardashians. In the teaser video, he can be heard opening up about this past and making amends for cheating on his former partner, Khloe.
“I’m in the place now where I can own up to the mistakes I made,” said Tristan, via Complex. “Everyone got affected differently, but I think you were affected the most.” Finally, when asked how it feels when he cheats (romantically), Tristan didn’t hold back with a response. “When I cheat, I feel disgusted the next day.”

Tristan has enjoyed a 12-year NBA career, but his most memorable moments have been with the Kardashian family. Appearing on the family show several times, Tristan dated Khloe for years and the couple have two children together. Thanks to a dramatic story full of ups and downs, their relationship remains one of the most publicized celebrity connections in modern basketball history.
NBA Fans Troll Tristan Thompson
it’s no secret that Tristan Thompson has a serious problem with loyalty in relationships and he’s known as a serial cheater throughout the NBA community. So when word got out about his latest comments and his steps towards self-accountability, it’s no surprise that the fans were less than eager to buy into the propaganda.
But does it again & again & again, anyway.

The problem for Tristan is that his words aren’t backing up his actions and you can’t blame people for flaming the guy for trying to change the narrative.

At this point, the only advice to offer Tristan Thompson is to control himself and resist the temptation to cheat on his partner. While it may be too late to salvage his relationship with Khloe, he can work on getting better for the next one and kill this nasty habit once and for all.
A Troubled Past For Tristan And Khloe
Tristan and Khloe first linked back in 2016, back during the height of Thompson’s career with the Cleveland Cavaliers. In the years that followed, the pair endured a dramatic on-again, off-again relationship which ended when Thompson was caught cheating on Khloe multiple times during their relationship. Things got so toxic between the couple that Thompson’s own teammates felt sorry for Khloe when things took a turn for the worst. Later, Khloe admitted to having brain trauma apparently in connection to Tristan’s constant infidelity.
Obviously, no amount of apologizing will erase Tristan’s dark past and many fans are less than convinced that he’s genuinely changed for the better. The good news for Tristan is that he’s willing to admit that he’s got a problem and that’s the first step toward recovery. The bad news is, it’s taken him all the way until now to understand why cheating is wrong and how it can hurt the ones you love.
