Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce from her estranged husband, Ben Affleck, and it appears that an NBA star is wasting no time trying to get her.
Lopez filed for divorce on Aug. 20th, which came two years to the day after the pop star celebrated her marriage to Affleck in a Georgia wedding ceremony.
Days before, Lopez posted a video of herself taking a swig of a drink and repeating the new catchphrase “Very mindful, very demure” that has swept social media.
Social media has been in an uproar after a screenshot showed Miami Heat superstar Jimmy Butler, who was recently in China for the Yao Foundation Charity Game, allegedly telling her to answer her messages in her comment section.
Jennifer Lopez savagely responded with, “Yhu got a ring?”
However, none of this actually happened, as the account that posted the news about “Jimmy Butler taking his shot at Jennifer Lopez” is called NBA Centel, a parody account that plays under the name NBA Central.
They have been tricking thousands, if not millions, of people for months.

Alex Rodriguez Posted Cryptic Social Media Update amid Jennifer Lopez’s Divorce
Alex Rodriguez shared a cryptic social media update amid news of Jennifer Lopez filing for divorce from Ben Affleck.
Last week, and on the same day that his former fiancée filed for divorce from her husband, A-Rod shared a quote on his Instagram Stories that read: “You either go one way or the other, you might as well be the one deciding the direction.”
Despite what people thought at the time, a source told PEOPLE that Rodriguez’s Instagram post “has nothing to do” with Jennifer Lopez.
The former New York Yankees player began a romance with Lopez in 2017, which led to an engagement in the Bahamas in March 2019.
The former couple called off their two-year engagement in March 2021 amid cheating rumors.
