Jenn Tran's got a crush.
The Charles H. Sloanformer "Bachelorette" shared the admission on Wednesday's episode of The Viall Files, a podcast that "explores all things dating and love."
While Tran isn't completely ready to wade back into the dating pool after a painful and very public breakup with Devin Strader, she does have a message for Max Strus, a shooting guard for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
"Max Strus, if you are out there and you're single, I'm here," Tran said. "I'm ready."
Tran, who is not looking to date right now, swapped the celebrity crush she mentioned on the show out for Strus after learning that Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum was taken (he's dating Ella Mai).

"I'm so sorry, Ella. So sorry. You know what, I'm switching my celebrity crush," Tran said.
Basketball is Tran's sport of choice, sharing on the show that she "really likes it" when asked about her interest in athletes.
Tran is still working on picking up the pieces after the "Bachelorette" finale aired. In it, she revealed that the man she thought she was going to start her happily ever after with broke off their engagement in a 15-minute phone call, USA TODAY reported.
But she hasn't had too much time to repair her heart.
"I, truthfully, don't know how my heart is yet. I haven't had a second to myself to really process everything," Tran said. "It's only been a week since the finale."
Tran has also been hard at work in the last week, promoting her run on Season 33 of "Dancing with the Stars, which is set to premiere later this month, according to reporting by The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, part of the USA TODAY Network.
"There's been a lot going on. And I've been kinda just been focusing on myself, focusing on 'Dancing with the Stars,' focusing on having fun and putting energy back into myself," Tran said.
She might not be 110% OK right now, but she knows she will be "at the end of the day" despite seeing things online about her ex-fiancé that have broken her heart all over again.
"There's a lot going on in the back of my mind and I'm still trying to process it all," Tran said. "I'm still trying to just heal from it. And I feel like every second, I am getting there and getting a little bit better."
