Chloe Kitts Celebrates 21st Birthday in Style — With Love, Glam, and a Shoutout From Her NBA Boyfriend
South Carolina women’s basketball standout Chloe Kitts rang in her 21st birthday this week — and she did it in eye-catching fashion.
On Tuesday, Kitts shared a TikTok video that quickly grabbed attention. Set to Tay Money and Kaliii’s “Blow It,” the clip opened with Kitts fresh out of the shower, wrapped in a towel with a white tank top. She lights a candle as the lyrics play: “Wait, make a wish, blow a bag like a candle.” As she blows out the flame, the video cuts to her transformed — fully glammed up in a bright pink outfit, lip-syncing the bold line:
“I’m too hot for you to handle.”
She captioned the post with several emojis and tagged the song’s artists.
Kitts also took to Instagram to share a series of birthday snaps from a celebratory dinner, showing off her pink birthday dress and cake. Fellow Gamecocks teammates chimed in with love, including Ta’Niya Latson, who dropped heart emojis, and Tessa Johnson, who commented:
“You’re growing up on me.”
Kitts is coming off a breakout season in Columbia. As a junior, she started all 38 games, averaging 10.2 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 1.9 assists per game while shooting 52% from the field and 33.3% from three-point range. She led the Gamecocks in rebounding and was among the SEC’s top rebounders. One of her standout performances came against Ole Miss, where she recorded a triple-double with 16 points, 13 rebounds, and 10 assists — only the second Gamecock ever to do so in an SEC game.
Her birthday also brought a heartfelt moment from her boyfriend, Collin Murray-Boyles, who recently made headlines after being selected 9th overall by the Toronto Raptors in the NBA Draft. He shared a photo of the two from his draft night celebration and posted a touching birthday message:
“BIG 21!!!! Happy Birthday beautiful. I’m so lucky to have you in my life and you’ve grown so much for us! Keep being who you are and never change @chloekitts ❤️❤️”
Murray-Boyles spoke about their relationship in July with The Athletic NBA Daily, saying:
“She’s been wonderful for me. You know, everybody wants somebody that could hold you accountable and not really sugarcoat anything… that only builds, makes you all stronger as a whole, makes you stronger in your career.”
As Kitts returns to South Carolina for her senior season and Murray-Boyles begins his NBA journey, the couple continues to shine both on and off the court.
