Baby Mama Drama–Former NBA Guard Quincy Douby Gets Got For Child Support

Ouch…that’s a big difference! Ex-Sacramento Kings Guard Quincy Douby was already paying $1,500 each month . Now she’s asking for $15,000!!! SMH A former NBA player who’s being asked to pay $15,000 a month in child support branded his ex-girlfriend a gold digger Wednesday who wants to imitate the “Basketball Wives” lifestyle. Quincy Douby, 28, a 2006 first-round draft pick who played three seasons with the Sacramento Kings and now stars in China, showed up at Brooklyn Family Court based a legal challenge from his ex, Tanya Raymond. The 28-year-old mother of their 5-year-old daughter, Quinn, claims Douby had been paying for her home, but recently stopped, forcing her to move in with her parents. “I’ve got a father who makes $2 [million] to $3 million a year and left the child destitute,” Raymond’s lawyer Steven Gildin said in court. Douby claimed that he’s been paying $1,500 a month for his daughter’s entire life and has been providing for all her needs. “It’s just about money for her at this point,” he said of Raymond, his high school sweetheart. The couple split before Quinn was born. “All these basketball shows on TV — girls are watching it and they want that kind of life,” the hoops guard claimed. “At this point, she can have the money. I don’t care,” Douby said. “I want everyone to know I love my daughter.” Do you think he should have to pay up that much? Source Images via Twitter/Daily News

Celebrity Cribs: Jason Kidd Gets The Hell Outta Dodge And Sells His $1.4 Million Dallas Condo [Photos]

Trade or not, we’re not sure we would have sold this place. Jason Kidd Sells His $1.4 Million Dallas Condo According to TMZ reports : Jason Kidd has officially severed his final ties with Dallas after the Mavericks traded him to the Knicks — TMZ has learned, the NBA legend has sold his luxury condo in the Big D. Kidd listed the 2,607 sq. ft. pad for $1,595,000 back in October, and it remained on the market until June 21st — when it finally sold for $1,387,500. Kidd signed with the Knicks last month. According to official records, Kidd bought the condo in 2009 for $1,420,000 — meaning he lost a little on his investment … but nothing like Michael Phelps on his recent sale. It’s a pretty badass condo — featuring a 4-car garage, 2 fireplaces, a pool on the building’s rooftop, and a guarded entrance. But Kidd’s not just dumping his Dallas property, he’s also getting rid of his giant house in Arizona — listing his 6-bedroom, 9-bath, 13,523 sq. ft. Paradise Valley home for $5,995,000. Must be nice to have a $1.4 million condo AND a $6 million house… Hit the flipper to see more pics of the veteran ballers not-so-humble abode. Image via TMZ

How Not To Be Like Me: NBA Hall Of Famer Dennis “Raunchy ‘Ranny” Rodman Writes A Children’s Book

Hopefully this won’t be the book cover… Dennis Rodman Writes A Children’s Book Don’t expect Dennis Rodman to look to prepaid cards or payday loans to help pay his massive child support debt …..cause he’ll be writing children’s books and selling them to your kids. Would you let NBA Hall of Famer Dennis Rodman teach life lessons to your kids? The question may soon be answered when the former basketball star releases his own children’s book entitled: Dennis The Wild Bull. Reportedly, Rodman wants to inspire kids by writing about he overcame some of the challenges he faced as a young person. The Huffington Post reports: Dennis Rodman has staked his claim in the literary world before, penning four autobiographical titles, including 2005′s “I Should Be Dead By Now.” But the Hall of Famer’s newest work, “Dennis The Wild Bull,” isn’t the latest account of his raucous life, it may actually be a prequel — written for children, TMZ reports. Details on the children’s book, which is slated to be released later this year, are minimal, but according to a website dedicated to the work, it will “convey good lessons to children based on Dennis’ own experiences as a world class athlete while overcoming obstacles as a child.” Rodman teamed up with author/screenwriter Dustin Warburton and illustrator Dan Monroe to create the book. We’re actually glad that Dennis is doing positive things now days. Would you buy his book for your children? Source

The tragedy by now has been well-documents: Kyle Glover was placed in a coma and considered medically brain dead last week, following a jet skiing accident in which his inner tube was struck by an oncoming vehicle. A family friend of Usher’s is under investigation for the accident. While Usher has remained by Tameka’s side during this terrible time, and while insiders say he has eased up in their custody dispute , TMZ reports the singer has NOT offered to foot any medical bills and Foster is likely on her own when it comes to coverage.
