Former NBA forward Andre Roberson just had a major life update — and no, it’s not a return to the league or a departure from ASVEL. Before heading to Russia to join Zenit Saint Petersburg, the EuroLeague veteran made a quick trip stateside for a far more personal milestone: his wedding.

Roberson married Rachel Annamarie DeMita, a familiar name in basketball circles. A former college hooper and longtime media personality, DeMita gained widespread recognition as the host of NBA 2KTV and for her deep involvement in the basketball content space. While she recently made headlines after being let go by the BIG3 just a month ago, she’s clearly shifted her focus to brighter moments — starting with her wedding day.

The ceremony may have turned heads among basketball fans, especially those unfamiliar with DeMita’s background. So, for those just discovering the new Mrs. Roberson, here’s a closer look at the woman who’s long been a staple in the hoops world — and now, officially part of a basketball couple that fans will want to keep an eye on.

How Did Andre Roberson and Rachel DeMita Meet?

Did Andre Roberson and Rachel DeMita get married?

As of August 2025, Andre Roberson and Rachel DeMita are officially married. On August 3, the new Mrs Roberson shared glimpses of their wedding on her Instagram Stories.

What Does Rachel DeMita Do for a Living?

Her high school resume earned Rachel DeMita a full-ride Division 1 Scholarship to Old Dominion University in 2008. She however, lost her joy for the game and didn’t see herself playing in the WNBA one day. She quit basketball without seeing any minutes and she pivoted her focus to her degree, transferring to American University. She graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Arts in journalism and performing arts which marked the start of her media career.

In 2014 she auditioned to host NBA 2KTV with Shaquille O’Neal and Ernie Johnson. She got the gig, interviewed big names in the basketball world, and built her fame.

Today, RAD is a sportscaster, social media influencer, WNBA insider, and sideline reporter. She was with BIG3 until recently. The courtside commentator tweeted about Caitlin Clark’s performance against New York Liberty in June. But Ice Cube has a love-hate relationship with the NBA and WNBA as rival leagues to his 3vs3 league. And he’s haunted by CC rejecting his $5 million offer. So DeMita’s Caitlin Clark perspective was not well-received and she was fired the same week as her posts.

The setback didn’t matter. RAD still has her passive following on YouTube and other platforms as well as a resume that boasts jobs at NBA 2KTV, ESPN, Bleacher Report, and more. And she’s also affiliated with multiple brand deals including with Adidas.

Who Are Rachel DeMita’s Parents?

Rachel’s parents stay out of her spotlight but are still pretty well known in their Akron community. Her mom, Shannon DeMita is an educator who worked with the Coventry Local Schools district for almost three decades. She served as the Director of academic accountability, a job she found rewarding for, “Witnessing the significant and lasting impact our principals and teachers make in the lives of our students.”

Shannon is a casual athlete herself, enjoying a competitive game of tennis. She’s been married to Jack DeMita, a construction shop manager, for over three decades.

With over 372k subscribers and 2.2 million average monthly views, DeMita’s self-titled YouTube page makes about $100k annually.

“I’m a more miserable person when I’m not busy,” DeMita once said. “Happiness is never stopping working. Let’s get this shoot or training done. When I learn a new skill or hit another milestone in my workouts, that makes me happy. Helping shelter animals makes me happy. Coming up with new concepts, seeing people watching my shows and really enjoying makes me happy.”
