Vanessa Hudgens steps out for dinner date with LA Lakers star Kyle Kuzma after Austin Butler split

Just a week after splitting with her boyfriend of nearly a decade, Austin Butler, Vanessa Hudgens was spotted with NBA star Kyle Kuzma.

The 30 year old Bad Boys For Life star was spotted having an intimate dinner with the 24 year old Los Angeles Lakers power forward at Lilia in Brooklyn, New York on Tuesday.

Hudgens has been in New York City for the past few days, and met up with Kuzma on his day off.

Hudgens all smiles with her hair tied up as she stepped out in a brown turtleneck while Kuzma wore a tan coat. 

The pair seemed to be smiling and laughing with wine glasses on their small table around them with Kuzma seen with a cocktail.

The outing comes just after she was spotted at a Los Angeles Lakers game by herself last week, just one day before the news of her split with Austin Butler broke.

Hudgens took to her Instagram and Instagram story to share several snaps of her enjoying the Los Angeles Lakers vs. Cleveland Cavaliers game last Monday. 

‘What a legendary night. Go @lakers,’ Hudgens said on her Instagram, while wearing a lacy yellow top with a black and white top over it. 

She also shared a video on her Instagram story that included a filter where it showed her wearing a Lakers headband, as she hit the game solo. 

The day after her Laker game outing, US Weekly reported that Hugens and Butler split after nine years together.

‘Vanessa and Austin are officially broken up, and Vanessa has been telling those close to her about their breakup,’ a source said.

There was speculation that the pair had split in December when they didn’t spent the holidays together.

Kuzma has previously been rumored to be dating Kendall Jenner and model Katya Elise Henry in the past.

Kuzma and his Lakers will play the New York Knicks on Wednesday and the New Jersey Nets on Thursday.

It remains to be seen if Hudgens will be in attendance to watch Kuzma play in the Big Apple.
