JJ Redick Denies Calling Black Woman N-word

The Los Angeles Lakers made an enormous splash after they introduced that retired-baller-turned-podcaster-slash-talking head JJ Redick will probably be their new head coach. Redick upped his profile over the previous few years by showing on ESPN’s First Take to butt heads with Stephen A. Smith and utilizing his voice to defend gamers and push again towards drained narratives. JJ gave the impression to be well-liked.

That may have modified a bit.

Following his F-bomb-laden introductory press convention, Redick was reminded of issues he’s “allegedly” stated prior to now can and will probably be used towards him within the court docket of public opinion. Again in 2014, BOSSIP reported on leaked emails that supposedly confirmed JJ calling his then-pregnant girlfriend Vanessa Lopez a “soiled ni**er” and a “silly sp*c.”

One other get together who alleges to have suffered JJ’s racist wrath is a Black girl named Halleemah Nash, an alumnus of Howard College and Duke College, who took to the app previously referred to as Twitter accusing Redick of calling her “ni**er.”

Though he hasn’t spoken publicly in regards to the allegations, TMZ spoke to a spokesperson inside Redick’s staff they usually succinctly deny the allegation saying, “No, it by no means occurred.”

One would possibly assume that such a denial can be a bit extra…verbose contemplating the gravity of the accusations, however for now, that’s all we get. Relying on how loud this narrative turns into, JJ is perhaps compelled to deal with it head-on if he doesn’t wish to go the best way of disgraced ex-Los Angeles Clippers proprietor Donald Sterling.
