Anjali Ranadive, the daughter of Sacramento Kings owner and Silicon Valley billionaire Vivek, appears to have a new love interest: retired NBA guard Jeremy Lamb.
The relationship was revealed on Instagram where Anjali, 32, shared a photo of herself kissing the former Kings player alongside three leashed wolves – a long-time interest of the budding philanthropist.
'My pack,' she wrote on Instagram alongside a heart emoji, wolf emoji, and Lamb's handle.
The origins of their relationship remain a bit of a mystery, but they did have some professional overlap within the Kings organization.
In addition to her wildlife charity work and singing career, Anjali served as assistant general manager of the King's G League affiliate in Stockton until January 19, when she resigned to pursue other interests.

A veteran of 10 NBA seasons, Lamb may have met Anjali during his time in Stockton
Lamb, also 32, arrived in Sacramento in a trade in February of 2022, and although he was waived a year later, he resurfaced with the Stockton Kings in November.
Ultimately he suffered a season-ending injury in March before opting to retire in August.
It remains unclear if Anjali and Lamb began socializing during their respective tenures in Stockton.
Regardless, they appear thrilled to be together with a trio of wolves in the photos.
Lamb is coming off a successful 10-year NBA career, much of which was spent in Oklahoma City, Charlotte and Indiana. He had his best season, offensively, with the Hornets in 2018-19, when he averaged a career-high 15.3 points a game.
He might be better remembered for his college career at UConn, where he won a national title in 2011.

Her father, Vivek, was chronicled in Malcolm Gladwell's 2013 book, David and Goliath. But rather than Vivek's career in business intelligence software, the text instead focused on the billionaire's decision to coach Anjali's middle-school basketball team.
Vivek had never touched a basketball until his 40s, but guided the team to success using a set of principles that Gladwell applies to other lessons in life.
It was that experience that ultimately led Vivek to buy the Kings in 2013.
Since then, Sacramento has made the playoffs only once, losing a first-round series to the rival Warriors in 2023.
