Another day, another rumor about the Kardashian-Jenners. Honestly, would you expect anything less from a family that's dominated headlines and reality TV for almost an entire decade? The latest speculation is about whether Kendall Jenner is dating Blake Griffin. According to TMZ, Jenner has been hanging with the NBA player quite a bit lately, including going on double dates with pal Hailey Baldwin. (Bustle reached out to reps for Jenner and Griffin, but did not receive a immediate response.) But before you start coming up with a couple name (Blendall? Ken-lake?), you might want to slow down.

As People is reporting, yes, Jenner and Griffin are spending time together, but "it's still very casual." A source claimed to People, "She’s seeing Blake romantically. It’s nothing serious. She has been in L.A. a lot lately, and is having fun." Not only that, but the publication also states Jenner is reportedly still seeing A$AP Rocky (though the pair has never actually confirmed a relationship, despite countless rumors over the past year).

And here's the thing, Jenner is in her 20s, dedicated to her career, and likely too busy to actually have a super-committed, serious relationship. There's nothing wrong with any of that, which is exactly why you probably shouldn't take the Jenner and Griffin dating rumors overly seriously. If they are seeing each other, it sounds totally casual, and not like they're hopping down the aisle tomorrow.

As seen in the past, Jenner tends to keep her love life private and she's been the subject of plenty of rumors, which makes it tough to tell what's speculation and what's something more. She rarely, if ever, comments publicly on her love life, so she probably won't confirm anything in the near future. But hey, if these two do decide to give things a serious shot, they might actually make a solid couple. Griffin is not only an athlete, but he's got a few funny acting gigs under his belt — from Trainwreck to Broad City.

Again, don't go out and buy an "I <3 Blendall" shirt just yet. (Partly because the dating rumors are unconfirmed, but also because someone needs to come up with a much better ship name first.)
