Selena Gomez is reportedly dating NBA star Jimmy Butler.

The Rare singer, 28, sparked romance rumours with the Miami Heat baller after the pair were spotted on a dinner date, according to the Miami Herald.

And although Selena hasn’t commented on the love claims just yet, a source told E! News the pair have already met up “a few times”.

It’s reported that Selena is “keeping her options open but has been on a few dates with Jimmy and thinks he’s a great guy,” as Jimmy has yet to comment on the speculation.

The source claimed: “They hung out a few times while Selena was in New York City. Jimmy asked her to go to dinner and they had a great time.”

The source added: “It’s very casual and she’s open to seeing where things go, but isn’t settling down just yet.”

Selena reportedly “loves being single” so she’s not in a rush to get boo’d up.

The source insisted Selena is “currently single but has recently been more open to dating.”

It’s reported that her pals often want to “set her up all the time but she has loved being single”.

“Selena has been very careful with her health this year and has barely left her quarantine bubble,” the source adds.

“She’s been extremely busy working from home on her new beauty line and is very proud to have launched that during a pandemic. She’s been enjoying cooking at home and only seeing a select few friends and family members regularly.”

Mirror Online has contacted Selena and Jimmy’s reps for comment.

Selena has been living the single life since being romantically linked to former One Direction star Niall Horan in 2019.

Though the pair never confirmed their romance, they were spotted being very cosy on countless occasions.

Prior to that, Selena’s on/off romance with Justin Bieber grabbed headlines across the world.

The pair finally called it quits in the spring of 2018, with Justin shocking the world just months later when he married Hailey Baldwin.

Before dating Justin, Selena dated singer The Weeknd for 10 months in-between his on/off romance with model Bella Hadid.
