In the clip, Draya tells Jalen she can drink a glass of water without touching the towel she’s placed over it. She waves her hands around, makes a few fake mystical sounds, and then confidently says, “I drank it.”
Jalen looks at her like she’s out of her mind. He lifts the towel to check. The second he does, Draya grabs the glass and gulps it down. “See?” she says, laughing. “Told you I could drink it without touching the towel.”
It’s a harmless prank, but Draya got her way, and Jalen is now on the hook for a shopping trip!

How Long Have Draya Michele and Jalen Green Been Dating?
Draya, 40, and Jalen, 23, went public in August 2023. In May 2024, they welcomed a daughter together. Since the start, their age difference has been a point of public debate—often unfairly so. Draya’s addressed it directly, saying it’s weird people care so much. Jalen hasn’t said much, but clips like this one suggest he’s fine with people speculating while they live their life.
They’ve faced the usual flood of commentary: people calling it “mother and son vibes,” memes about “raising your man,” and jokes about NBA maturity. But none of that seems to matter when they’re posting videos like this.
Jalen Green and Draya Michele’s Age Gap Relationship
This moment isn’t deep. It’s not about clapping back or making a statement. It’s just a small piece of their relationship, and it works. They’re laughing. They’re spending time together. He’s buying Sephora bags. She’s winning bets with nonsense magic tricks. If that’s not love, it’s at least fun.
