Devin Booker was in a relationship with model and reality star Kendall Jenner for almost two years. The pair broke up late last year due to wanting to focus on their respective careers.
Booker was not linked to anyone since his breakup with Jenner until Tuesday when a report claimed that he's dating "Wednesday" actress Jenna Ortega. The rumor was started by Buttcrack Sports on Twitter, which means the report is false.
Buttcrack Sports is a notable satire page that makes up different kinds of reports for attention. The page recently linked rapper Ice Spice with Golden State Warriors guard Jordan Poole. They also reported that the NBA suspended LeBron James for using performance-enhancing drugs.

Devin Booker is currently single, while Jenna Ortega confirmed in an interview with Elle Magazine earlier this month that she's not dating anyone. Ortega also debunked rumors that she previously dated actor Asher Angel and singer Jacob Sartorius.
"Maybe I am too obsessed with my work, but the idea of relationships stresses me out," Ortega said. "And also being that vulnerable with someone and having to get to know someone that well and having someone see you for all that you are. ... My brain knows that I don't need to think about that right now."
Despite Ortega's recent interview and the reputation of Buttcrack Sports, some of her fans thought that she was dating Booker. While some took the report very seriously, others made fun of it and created hilarious memes.

Devin Booker cooking since returning from hamstring injury
Devin Booker missed 21 games due to a hamstring injury earlier this season. Booker returned to action on Feb. 7 against the Brooklyn Nets. He has played 17 games since then, averaging 29.4 points, 4.3 rebounds, 5.9 assists and 1.0 steals.
Booker is also shooting 52.7% from the field and 35.5% from beyond the arc since returning. The Phoenix Suns are back in contention for a top-four spot in the Western Conference standings. They will need to rely on Booker more, with Kevin Durant nursing a new injury.
It has been an up-and-down season for the Suns, mainly due to injuries. However, they made one of the biggest trades in NBA history at the deadline. They have a core of Booker, Durant, Chris Paul and DeAndre Ayton. It's likely championship or bust for Phoenix this season.
