After all the drama that Ben Simmons brought along with him in their short-lived relationship, we can't necessarily blame Tinashe for swearing off of basketball players for a while. The mentality for some remains "Ball is life" but for Tinashe, it is anything but. The singer was recently wrapped up in a complicated love triangle with her former "boo thang" Ben Simmons and Kendall Jenner. Simmons allegedly cheated on Tinashe with Kendall before an entire tornado of hook-ups started happening. Kendall got with Gigi and Bella's younger brother, Anwar Hadid, and Tinashe spent some time with Jenner's ex Blake Griffin. With all the nonsense going on with her relationship status of late, Tinashe is making a big decision regarding who she dates in the future.

The "2 On" singer was leaving a Hollywood club last night when TMZ caught up with her, asking if she would ever date a ballplayer again. Before hopping into her exotic whip, Tinashe replied to the photographer's question if she was finished dating NBA stars with an enthusiastic, "Oh yeah!" Making her way out of the L.A. hotspot, the singer revealed her love life is "excellent" at the moment, giving a thumbs up to the paparazzi. Adding to her list of prerequisites, potential dating candidates for Tinashe must not be an idiot, according to her, as she bashed the majority of men in Los Angeles saying she comes across many stupid people there.

So, if we're keeping a list, you mustn't be in the NBA or be an idiot to date Tinashe. I guess JR Smith is totally out of the running?
