‘Bro delete this’: Tristan Thompson gets roasted on Instagram for his workout form after sharing a shirtless gym video of his bicep curls
Tristan Thompson is a professional athlete surrounded by personal trainers, but his Instagram followers felt his workout form was lacking in his new post.
The NBA playboy, 31 – who recently agreed to pay his baby mama Maralee Nichols $9.5K in monthly child support – posted a video on Saturday with the goal of flaunting his guns on social media.
Unfortunately, his followers were less than impressed by his bicep curls and blasted Khloe Kardashian’s ex in the comments section.

The negative reaction was swift, racking up hundreds of brutal put-downs.

Echoing that wise sentiment further down in the comments section, someone wrote to Tristan: ‘You still have time to delete this.’

He later took to his Instagram Story, still-shirtless, and declared: ‘Last workout of 2022, Kev. Can’t f**k around now, come on now.’

‘Kev’ is celebrity trainer Kev Kevorkian – no relation to the illustrious Dr. Kevorkian – who was present during Tristan’s workout.
It comes after Thompson reached a settlement in his ongoing paternity case with Maralee Nichols.
The parents of Theo, age one, have settled to terms that the NBA player will pay $9,500 a month in child support as he is currently not contracted to a team and is not earning income.
Last year, Thompson conceived a child with Nichols while in a relationship with reality star Khloe Kardashian, 38 – with whom he shares two children.
