Golden State Warriors rookie Yaxel Lendeborg has generated many headlines during his brief NBA career.
This involves his antics on and off the court. The No. 11 pick of the 2026 NBA Draft went viral for trash-talking Lakers star Luka Dončić last week, and made numerous eyebrow-raising comments during the summer.

But Lendeborg’s impressive performances on the court suggest Golden State is happy to have him around. And Lendeborg’s girlfriend, Tacarra Shyann, seems to be preparing for her man to reside in the Bay Area for a long time.

She made an Instagram post on Saturday that showed her posing courtside at the Warriors’ home Chase Center while wearing Golden State apparel.
“first of many,” Shyann wrote as the post’s caption, suggesting that she intends to be supporting Lendeborg in Golden State for the foreseeable future.

Shyann and Lendeborg met in the summer of 2025, right before Lendeborg began his final college season with the Michigan Wolverines.
During an interview with WAG Talk from back in June, Shyann said that, “We met because he kept DM’ing me on Instagram, honestly. And I finally responded.”

As much as Lendeborg’s mouth might get him in trouble, the bottom line is that he already looks like an elite prospect on the court, and that offsets his polarizing off-court nature.
This is why both Golden State and Shyann appear eager to see this pairing continue.
