South Carolina Gamecocks star Chloe Kitts just turned 21 years old this Tuesday. The basketball player was part of Dawn Staley’s 2024 national championship-winning South Carolina team and was most recently named the MVP of the 2025 SEC Tournament.
One of the first people to wish her the best on her birthday was her boyfriend and former fellow Gamecocks basketball player, Collin Murray-Boyles. Murray-Boyles posted a picture alongside Kitts on his Instagram story and added the following caption:
“BIG 21!!!!! Happy Birthday beautiful. Im so lucky to have you in my life and youve grown so much for us! Keep being who you are and never change @chloe.kitts ❤️❤️”
Murray-Boyles was an SEC All-Freshman Team selection in 2024 and a Second Team All-SEC selection in 2025. He declared for the NBA after the conclusion of the 2024-25 campaign and was selected as the ninth overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft by the Toronto Raptors.

While it isn’t known when the pair started dating, Chloe Kitts made the relationship official in April 2024 through an Instagram story showing them going to the South Carolina Gamecocks’ annual gala together.
Chloe Kitts’ Message to Collin Murray-Boyles After Being Drafted By The Toronto Raptors
In late June, it was Chloe Kitt’s turn to praise Collin Murray-Boyles. Immediately after the NBA Draft, the South Carolina star took to her Instagram to congratulate her man for being the ninth overall pick of the event. She had very kind words for him in her caption:
“It’s crazy to think that last year we were sitting on the couch watching the draft, and you looked at me and said, ‘That’ll be me next year.’ And now… it is you,” Kitts wrote on Instagram. “Watching you get drafted into the NBA was one of the most powerful, emotional moments I’ve ever experienced not just because of what it means, but because I know the sacrifice, the long nights, the setbacks, and the quiet battles it took to get here.”
“You earned this with everything you are. I am endlessly proud of you,” she added.

Kitts is about to enter her fourth, and expectedly last, season in college basketball. 2026 will likely be her opportunity to be drafted to the WNBA in her case.
