Scottie Pippen’s ex-wife Larsa Pippen showed support for their son Scotty Pippen Jr. ahead of the start of the 2024-25 NBA Season.
The Grizzlies’ official Instagram account shared Pippen Jr. behind-the-scenes pictures during the Grizzlies’ media day, which Larsa shared in her Instagram story.
“Let’s go [Scotty],”said her caption.
Pippen Jr. will be heading into his third NBA season this month. Last season, the 23-year-old guard played 21 games, making good use of the opportunity to showcase his talents while some players in the Memphis Grizzlies roster were out on injuries. He averaged 12.9 points, 3.2 rebounds, 4.7 assists, and 1.7 steals. He shot 49.3% from the field and 41.7 from beyond the arc.
Larsa Pippen’s son showed better performances during the NBA Summer League, averaging 21.5 points and 8.7 assists and leading the Grizzlies to the Finals. He looks to play significantly better heading into the 2024-25 season.
