AceShowbiz - Tristan Thompson may have been dumped by Khloe Kardashian, but that doesn't mean he's ready to let her go. Learning that another man, who was previously also close to the reality TV star, was trying to flirt with her, the NBA star was quick to shut down the move.

That's why Tristan was not having it when Lamar Odom tried to grab Khloe's attention on Instagram. After the mother of one posted a thirst trap on Friday, July 9 that saw her getting drenched under the shower while showing off her bikini body in a two-piece swimsuit, her ex-husband left his mark by commenting, "Hottie" with some fire and heart eyes emojis as well as a heart emoji.

Noticing this, Tristan was seemingly left fuming. He quickly warned Lamar, "God brought you back the first time. Play if you want, different results." The Ontario-born hunk was referring to Lamar's near-fatal drug overdose at a Nevada brothel in 2015, which nearly killed the former NBA star.

The Boston Celtics player also gushed over Khloe's sexy pic, leaving two heart and drooling face emojis.

Lamar has not responded to Tristan's threatening message, but he has seemingly regretted his action as his comment has been removed from Khloe's post.

Lamar married Khloe in September 2009 and broke up in 2013 with the Good American Jeans founder filing for divorce. However, the divorce was dismissed in 2015 amid his recovery from the infamous drug overdose, before she filed for divorce again in 2016. Their divorce was finalized in December 2016.

As for Khloe's relationship with Tristan, it was reportedly over after he was caught in another cheating scandal earlier this year. However, he was said to be "confident" that he will win his baby mama back with a planned "grand gesture." A source recently told The Mirror, "She's kicked Tristan out and ditched her engagement ring, but he says it won't last. He says that Khloe will never leave him as they've got too much history."
