This story is receiving a lot of attention from the NBA fan community around the world.

One of the news that has been stirring up the NBA community in recent days is that Mexican-American forward Jaime Jaquez Jr. is rumored to be in a relationship with Nikki Sapp (Spoelstra) – the ex-wife of coach Erik Spoelstra. Notably, Erik Spoelstra is Jaquez’s coach at Miami Heat.

Nikki was spotted liking a lot of Jaime Jaquez’s posts on the player’s Instagram since November 2023 – a month before Nikki and Erik announced their divorce . This rumor was even pushed to a new level when Nikki was said to have “slept” with the 24-year-old Heat striker.

Nikki previously posted a video suggesting that women working in male-dominated fields should date men under 25 because they are “more easily manipulated”, further raising suspicions about the relationship between the two.

Of course, these are all unverified rumors that have had a significant impact on Nikki’s life – who divorced Erik Spoelstra more than a year ago. Many rude comments have appeared and forced the people involved to speak up.

“It’s really bad when so-called sports fans come on my personal page and call me crazy nicknames just because of a rumor. A damn story, completely untrue,” Nikki Sapp said.

Nikki Sapp was a former dancer and cheerleader for the Miami Heat. The pair fell in love when Spoelstra took over in 2008. At that time, Nikki Sapp was 18 years old, and Erik Spoelstra was nearly 40. Seven years later, the two officially held a wedding ceremony at the Vizcaya Museum & Gardens in Miami in 2015, causing a stir in the American basketball world at that time.

However, by the end of 2023, the two sides decided to “go their separate ways”. Both Erik Spoelstra and Nikki Sapp pledged to take responsibility for raising their three children after reaching a divorce agreement.

This false rumor also comes at a time when the Miami Heat is in crisis with a 10-game losing streak, and Jaime Jaquez himself has not been in good form recently. Recently, coach Spoelstra and his team broke the unforgettable streak with a 122-105 victory over the Charlotte Hornets thanks to the brilliant performance of rookie Andrew Wiggins.
