Rockets star Jalen Green fathered a child in February, it has been revealed, although there is apparently no bad blood between the child’s mother and his pregnant girlfriend Draya Michele.
According to TMZ, Green is the father of a child born February 12 with California student Myah Iakopo.
An Instagram post from Iakopo on February 14 announced the birth of a baby named Moira Iakopo on the 12th.
Iakopo and Green had known each other for some time but did not have a serious relationship.
Meanwhile, Green’s girlfriend, Draya Michele, is pregnant with the couple’s first child, who is expected to arrive later this month.

The couple, who have a 17-year age gap (Michele is 39 while Green is 22), have been dating since August 2022.
Nonetheless, TMZ reported that there are no issues between Iakopo and Michele, as the former is “not concerned about what Green does with his personal life outside of co-parenting.”
Green admitted he had a child on the way in March after scoring a career-high 42 points for Houston.
