Pretty weird story.

It started when ESPN's Jonathan Givony said, "NBA teams are talking about the fact that, they had question marks about his girlfriend being so much older than him, why was he estranged from his family because of this whole situation, apparently doesn't talk to his parents, or his brother. It's a very odd situation—"

LINK

From there the Reddit detectives took over and found out that Filipowski's brother and mother have accused the girlfriend of being a Mormon groomer on social media:



Apparently she had finished her Master's Degree when she went with him to his high school prom.

There are also rumors that she was his babysitter, but that's not been verified yet.

A lot of drama there.

And because I know pics will be necessary:

Sounds like Scientology type grooming

Filipowski bringing a 24 y/o girl to his prom is a pretty baller move tbh

But Brandon Miller can be involved with a murder and go number 2?
So what? Drew Brees didn’t care his mom killed herself
Most NBA players (including Lebron) don’t even know their Dad
Believe Kobe was estranged from his parents too

A lot of players have a deadbeat parent. Only thing odd about Drew was which parent.

“The draft is a very inexact science.” — NBA execs

Because Utah drafted him before the Jazz could.

I was hoping he'd be a Pelican


Edit- Aaron Rodgers doesn't talk to his family

Right
Brandon Miller was drafted because he was considered a top prospect (and played like it this year). So teams made every excuse to select him.

Filipowski showed he can’t physically play as a 5, isn’t a good enough shooter to be a modern stretch 4, and is basically a guy who puts up good stats in a way that doesn’t make his team better and is inefficient.

So that’s a late first rounder to begin with, before this weird thing with the hot Mormon Bama grad who has had her eye on him since he was a high schooler and is clearly manipulating him.

The line between late first and early second is minimal, this is a convenient excuse that likely has nothing to do with it.

So the NBA penallized him for having an older girlfriend that is smart and hott?

Not buying it.
