Chloe Kitts' boyfriend, Collin Murray-Boyles, has been selected by the Toronto Raptors as the No. 9 pick in the NBA draft on Wednesday. Kitts' coach Dawn Staley poked fun following Murray-Boyles' selection.
Staley posted a hilarious message on X (formerly Twitter), for Kitts as her boyfriend would now have to move to Canada for his professional career.
"Congrats @GamecockMBB Collin Murray-Boyles And @GamecockWBB Chloe Kitts 🥰🥰🥰. Now sneaking out of town means you’ll be sneaking out of the country," Staley wrote, adding a series of emojis.
Kitts, who will be entering her senior year with the Gamecocks this fall, has been in a relationship with Murray-Boyles for two years.
While they enjoyed their time together in South Carolina, the couple will now be distanced as Murray-Boyles is set to begin his NBA career in Toronto. Kitts will return to Columbia to begin preparations for the upcoming college basketball season.
