It seems like famed NBA heartthrob Chandler Parsons has no problems rocking the boat of friendship between supermodels Kendall Jenner and Hailey Baldwin.

The Memphis Grizzlies forward celebrated with Baldwin as the latter rang in her 20th birthday on Tuesday. Parsons sparked dating speculations when he posted a cute snapshot of him and Baldwin in social media, greeting the supermodel "HAPPY BIRFFDAY."

Parsons had been recently single, following an allegedly amicable split between him and former Victoria's Secret model Toni Garrn. Baldwin, meanwhile, had been linked with high-profile celebrities Drake and Justin Bieber before Parsons showed up in the picture.

As discovered by Busted Coverage, the photo showed the two sitting across from each other and enjoying a drink. Both were making faces at the camera, with Baldwin raising her hand to her lips and forming a "V" sign.

If this is a sign of a blossoming romance between the two, it could create some serious cracks on Baldwin's close friendship with Jenner. Along with gal pal Gigi Hadid, the trio forms a tight clique in the modeling industry.

So tight is this friendship that Jenner wrote in her website in Feb. 2016 how her "model friends" were her "security blanket." She added that if she didn't have them, she would be "freaking out!"

It is no secret that Parsons and Jenner had been linked in the past. In July 2014, EOnline reported how Jenner and Parsons had been spotted heavily flirting with each other during a dinner date. Just last year in October, the "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" star stepped out to support Parsons for his Del Toro shoe collection event.

Since then, Jenner has reportedly moved on to another basketball star, Los Angeles guard Jordan Clarkson, as per an article from Jobs & Hire. It is now unclear whether she will head north to Canada for Baldwin's birthday celebration, as things can get awkward especially when Parsons will be coming along as well.
