Vanessa Hudgens Goes On Date With Lakers Star Kyle Kuzma

Vanessa Hudgens appears to have started dating again after her split from Austin Butler. She was recently spotted having dinner with Lakers star Kyle Kuzma.

The romantic candle light Italian dinner happened at Lilia in Brooklyn. Pictures of the date that have been posted on TMZ show the two celebrities laughing, chatting, and having a good time. Along with the food, the they also ordered a bottle of red wine.

The dinner date comes after the social media interaction between Hudgens and Kuzma. The online exchanges of the two left fans wondering if they were flirting, ET Online reported. The pictures that have surfaced online confirmed that the two celebrities went out for a date, but there has been no official comment by the celebrities themselves or their respective reps yet.

Hudgens has been routinely commenting on Kuzma’s social media posts. While the comments are about the Lakers team, some fans believed that there may be something going on between the two because they have both been liking each other’s posts on social media. Is this a start of a new relationship for the actress?

Basketball and the Lakers team specifically are something that Hudgens has loved as a fan for years, US Weekly reported. She was recently seen at a game in Los Angeles with PrettyLittleThing, and Kuzma was playing that day against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Hudgens posted a video of the basketball game on her Instagram page and tagged the Lakers players, including Kuzma. She called the athletes her “heroes” in the post.

Reports of Hudgens breaking up with Butler surfaced online last week. The two of them have been linked together since September 2011. The split was confirmed when the actress walked the red carpet of her new movie “Bad Boys For Life” alone.

Butler was also missing in Hudgens’ social media posts during the holidays. She was last seen with him in a photo during Halloween.
