The insider revealed Lindsay, 32, and Durant -- an eight-time NBA all-star who was drafted No. 2 overall in the 2007 NBA Draft -- were romantically involved while they both attended the University of Texas at Austin.
"They broke up when she went to law school," the insider told Us, adding that while Lindsay and Durant split, "it was a pretty serious relationship."
Lindsay, an attorney from Dallas, TX, ended up studying law at Marquette University in Milwaukee, WI, after earning her Bachelor of Science degree in Sports Management from UT Austin.
