Basketball fans are calling for Kendall Jenner to be banned from attending upcoming games involving the Philadelphia 76ers amid fears about the Kardashian curse.

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star is said to be dating player Ben Simmons and attended his team’s match against the Cleveland Cavaliers – which eventually saw them being beaten with a final score of 121-112.

Since then, a fan has organised a petition stating that the 23-year-old shouldn’t be allowed entry into the Wells Fargo Centre in the future, and ithas already garnered over 3000 signatures.

The petition reads: “Jenner was front and centre in attendance for the Sixers' loss to the worst team in the league, the Cleveland Cavaliers. We as fans cannot sit idly by and let Kendall Jenner ruin what could be a truly special season by her attendance at Sixers games. We must take action.

“It is not a coincidence that the Sixers, who had started the season 10-0 at home, lost their first home game of the year the first time Jenner shows up. To make matters worse, the Cavaliers were winless on the road heading into their Black Friday match-up with the Sixers.

“It was inexplicable. A 20-game home regular season win streak has been snapped, Ben Simmons' career is in jeopardy. The madness must stop.”

Anyway, considering Khloe Kardashian is still in a relationship with Tristan Thompson – a Cleveland Cavaliers players – wouldn’t the obvious solution have been to have her at the game to balance out the so-called curse?

Food for thought.
