"I don't know. I like what I like. What can I say?" she replied, clarifying that she actually does enjoy watching basketball and it's not just the players' "height thing" that she's interested in.

"But I do agree I should've listened to my MJ, my grandmother. I should probably start to date accountants or something like that," she concluded.

Kardashian recently blasted Thompson on social media after he was spotted getting cozy with another woman: Jordyn Woods , Kylie Jenner's best friend. Woods later confirmed that she and Thompson had kissed and claimed that he initiated it .

Thompson had previously been involved in a cheating scandal when photos and videos of him surfaced with other women, all while Kardashian was pregnant with their daughter, True Thompson .

Before Thompson had even entered the picture, however, Kardashian had an unfortunate track record when it came to dating basketball players.

She previously dated Houston Rockets player James Harden, who also cheated on her . Kardashian was married to former Los Angeles Lakers player Lamar Odom, whose alleged drug use and infidelity eventually led to the couple's split in 2013.
