On his own, Phoenix Suns star Devin Booker has enough money, fame, and talent to carry a luxurious lifestyle for years. The same could be said for former Lakers sharpshooter Rick Fox back in the day.

As it so happens, the two actually have more in common than a career in the NBA. They both dated women belonging to the most powerful families on the planet.

In fact, many players throughout league history have some deep connection to the Kardashians or Jenners.

On Instagram, ClutchPoints took the conversation a step further by building the ultimate matchup of NBA talent: team Kardashian vs. team Jenner.

On the Kardashian side, names include James Harden, Rick Fox, Lamar Odom, Kris Humphries, and Tristan Thompson. Khloe dated Rick Fox, Tristan Thompson, and James Harden for a while and even married Lamar Odom before they split after 4 years together. The legendary matriarch Kim was with Humphries and they stayed together for an infamously short 72-day marriage before calling it quits.

Putting the failed relationships aside, the actual lineup of players is stacked with talent and many fans are convinced they would get the win against team Jenner.

On the other side is where things get weird. Not only is team Jenner objectively a better squad, but every player was actually with the same partner: Kendall, who apparently has a thing for NBA athletes.

Kendall's most recent fling involves Devin Booker. While the two reportedly split up last month, they were recently seen together during a 4th of July celebration. Whatever is next for Book and Kendall, his presence on team Jenner alone gives them a huge edge over this imaginary matchup against team Kardashian.

It was a fun and interesting debate for NBA fans, especially with the offseason grinding to a halt. If nothing else, it's crazy to see just how many players have some involvement with the Kardashians and Jenners.

In a 7 game series, there's really no telling how it would go, just like there's no telling what players might be added to these 'teams' in the future.
