Time to June 24, the 2022 NBA draft has come to an end, the Chinese players participating in the draft have all failed, including the famous Zeng Fanbo, as well as Liaoning star Zhang Zhenlin. As in previous years, there were far more players who lost the draft than were selected, including Pippen's son, Scotty Pippen Jr. Compared with Zeng Fanbo, Pippen Jr. is lucky, and he successfully entered the NBA with the fame of his parents and mother.
Due to the Lakers' large number of draft picks in previous seasons, the Lakers' choices in the draft are very limited. The Lakers selected Michigan State Guard Max Christie with the No. 35 pick in the second round. Then the Lakers announced that they would provide a two-way contract to Pippen Jr., so that Pippen Jr. also successfully entered the NBA.
Pippen was so happy to learn the news that his son had signed a contract with the Lakers that he brought the kids together and celebrated with champagne. Old Pippen was still hugging the children. Although it is a two-way contract, as long as Pippen Jr. performs well, next season he has every opportunity to assist James and Brother Thick-Brow.
In addition to Pippen Jr., Sharif O'Neal, son of Lakers star Shark O'Neal, has just agreed to join the Lakers, and next, O'Neill Jr. and Pippen Jr. will represent the Lakers in the Summer League together. Since Pippen Jr. was awarded a two-way contract, it was more likely that Pippen Jr. would stay in the team than O'Neill Jr.
The reason why Pippen Jr. was able to enter the NBA, in addition to his own efforts, the support of his father and mother was also very important. Little Pippen's mother, Larsa, has a high profile in the NBA, and she is a super celebrity like the Kardashian sisters. Larsa often posts her beautiful photos on social media accounts, and many fans are her fans.
Last season, Larsa was involved with Timberwolves guard Beasley, whose wife publicly accused Larsa of being a third party. Larsa unceremoniously fought back directly, after which Larsa and Beasley broke up. Larsa was furious because of this, interestingly, because of this incident, James's eldest son Brownie also paid attention to Larsa, and Brownie also went to Larsa's social account to like it continuously, which also alarmed James.
In the past 2 months, Larsa has often posted photos of her son Pippen training on social accounts. Larsa's move has greatly increased the exposure of Pippen Jr., otherwise, the Lakers may have other candidates.
The 46-year-old Larsa still has the charm and is in great shape, and many NBA players want to get close to him. If Pippen Jr. can stay with the Lakers, next season, she will definitely go to the Lakers' home stadium to watch. Congratulations to Pippen Jr. #NBA##Pippen ex-wife ##皮蓬儿子 #
