Her name is Kay'la Hanson. She met when she was studying pre-med at Weber State. Jeezus, I thought Portland was supposed to be a bastion of progressiveness. This isn't 1947. A piece of paper isn't a prerequisite to be in a committed relationship, and/or having a kid. How long have they been together now? They met in college and he's now completing his 6th NBA season - so what, 7 years. That's a pretty long relationship for someone who is just 27 years old and it has already lasted longer than many marriages. I agree, people need to MYOB and allow Dame and his partner to enjoy and celebrate the birth of their son. BNM
It does feel weird that he's getting involved in Portland news again. I thought he gave us up for Lebron.
What's funny, BNM, is I bet those same idiots who blather about Dame & Kay'la NOT being married have shit fits over same sex couples BEING married. Same thing. MYOB. I'd say this couple seem to be doing a pretty good job of arranging their lives.
Bandwagon reporting. POR has a better record than CLE. We are on the way up. They are on the way down. CLE is a dumpster fire. POR is a feel good story. Sounds like he's jumping off one bandwagon onto another going in the opposite direction, and perhaps auditioning for his next job in the process. BNM
All online news related comment sections are. Ignorant loudmouths who think they know everything and that they have the right to dictate everyone else's values.
Someone will get an in eventually. No stealing it form another source either. Must be first hand. I think @HCP will win this one.
He left Portland to cover the Cavs but since then been hired by ESPN. Since he’s still got his Portland connects it makes sense that he’d focus on them. I don’t trust that dude though.
I wonder how the players feel about him. Obviously, Dame and C.J. felt comfortable enough with him to sit down for dinner and an hour long interview. Unless that was just a case of keep your friends close and your enemies closer. BNM
I could be wrong (hey, stop laughing, it's possible) but it seemed to me that Dame was not comfortable talking about the impending arrival of Little Dime. I get the feeling he values his privacy and even more-so the privacy of his significant other and their child. I know I would want to shield them as much as possible -- case in point the post referencing the psychos and low-lifes on O-live. Hence, many here weren't even current on whether he had a girlfriend, and most had no idea as to her name. I guess we'll see how open he is with us mortals when the time comes. Is there a series of tweets showing mommy and baby in our future? Stay tuned.
One article I read mentions that his girlfriend canceled her twitter account a couple years ago. Seems like they both value their privacy. Good for them. They are the anti-Kardashians. I can't think of a higher compliment. BNM
