The Los Angeles Lakers have planned to cut Scottie Pippen Jr. this week, and it’s been hinted that it’s because of his mom.
Scottie Jr. is the son of 6-time NBA champion Scottie Pippen and his former-wife Larsa Pippen.
Larsa is frequent in the news because of her connection with Marus Jordan, the son of the legendary Michael Jordan, who was, of course, teammates with Scottie on the Chicago Bulls. The connection has caused friction between the two icons and they’re no more believed to be on speaking terms.
It’s now being rumored that the unconventional hookup is the reason at the back of the Lakers cutting Pippen’s son. Rapper Cam’ron told as much on the ‘Come And Talk 2 Me’’ show week, suggesting that the Lakers don’t want that kind of publicity, and neither does MJ.
It’s his mom,” he told. “Ain’t nothing to do with Scottie. They don’t need that to mess up the game. He got no time. He got waived by which team? They got no time. Jeanie Buss and them don’t got time for that nonsense.
“It just takes one call. Michael Jordan calls Magic Johnson, Magic Johnson calls Jeanie Buss, shut it down. 2 calls… that’s all it takes.”
“Listen, you’re costing your son a job with this public S,” he included . “Keep the S under wraps.
“You know who’s P off now? Scottie’s P off. ‘Cause now you’re affecting my son.”
Confirmed, that’s a wild theory. However there’s also the fact that Scottie Jr. did well for the South Bay Lakers in the G League, averaging 21.4 points, 5.6 assists, 4.1 rebounds, and 1.6 points per game playing 27.9 minutes a game. He just averaged 5.3 minutes in the NBA, playing only 6 games.
