Zendaya Shows Off Her Basketball Skills During School Visit With Tom Holland

Zendaya may be able to add a basketball star to her lengthy listof accolades.

The Euphoria actor was captured in an Instagram video posted on Friday throwing an assist to Hustle star Elvin Rodriguez during a visit to a school in her hometown of Oakland, California. 

Elvin posted clips of the alley-oop on his Instagram account, writing in one post: “ZENDAYA deserves a TEN-DAYA.” 

The Emmy winner’s boyfriend, Spider-Man star Tom Holland, also joined her for the event hosted by nonprofit organizations Hoopbus, Project Backboard, and local Oakland brand Oaklandish.

In another video, Tom is seen learning impressive basketball spinning tricks from Harlem Globetrotter player Sam Diaz. 

Sam posted the clip on his Instagram account, writing in one caption: “Who can say they taught Spider-Man some tricks.”

Zendaya recently discussed her notoriously private relationship with Tom in an Elle profile published last week. 

After years of rumours about the nature of their relationship, the couple appeared to make their romance Instagram official in 2021.

“Parts of my life, I accept, are going to be public,” she told Elle. “I can’t not be a person and live my life and love the person I love. But also, I do have control over what I choose to share.”

She continued: “It’s about protecting the peace and letting things be your own but also not being afraid to exist. You can’t hide. That’s not fun, either. I am navigating it more than ever now.”
