Tristan Thompson made the bold decision to return to social media amid drama with the Kardashians after he reportedly hooked up with Kim Kardashian's best friend, Larsa Pippen. The NBA star has stayed quiet on Instagram for the past three weeks and as soon as rumors begin to swirl, he jumped right back on.
Debuting a "new look," Khloé Kardashian's baby daddy looked carefree as if he had not a single worry on his mind, despite backlash from fans about Larsa.
Taking to his Instagram on Friday, July 24, Tristan Thompson turned the camera on himself and posed for a shameless selfie. Sporting his hair back in braids, the Cleveland Cavaliers star showed off his fresh 'do while also showcasing his perfectly shaved facial hair.
"New Look ?," he wrote as the caption for his selfie. While he didn't mention Larsa Pippen or Khloé at all, fans couldn't help but put in their two-cents on the reported issue.

Followers immediately began trolling Tristan Thompson. "New women too haha," one person poked fun. "U still ain't getting @khloekardashian with it lol," someone else wrote. "Is it true?" asked another. "Has Larsa seen his bro?" posted a fourth.
While Tristan Thompson is definitely copping some sort of backlash over the rumors, the person really getting the brunt of it is Larsa Pippen. The "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" stars seemed to put the final nail in the coffin when every member of the famous family unfollowed her on social media. They also didn't show up to her birthday party.
Rumors immediately began to circulate and when one person suggested she slept with Tristan Thompson, Kylie Jenner's former BFF Jordyn Woods seemed to confirm. The star, who also hooked up with Tristan Thompson, liked the tweet and all hell broke loose.
As far as where Khloé Kardashian and Tristan Thompson stand, it is unclear. Prior to the Larsa Pippen drama, there were rumors True's parents were trying to give their relationship another go after spending much time in quarantine together.
