Houston Rockets star Jalen Green has yet to prove himself in the league. He was the 2nd overall pick for the Rockets during the 2021 NBA draft and has had a decent start to his career so far. However, it is not his on-court exploits that have made him a popular name in NBA circles. A few months ago, an old resurfaced video of Green with one of his future teammates went viral. Moreover, his latest antics have also caused a stir across NBA Twitter.
The youngster was recently spotted with a 38-year-old model and TV reality star, which has sent shockwaves across social media platforms.

Michele burst onto the scene with her work in Basketball Wives of Los Angeles in 2011. She is extremely popular and has around 10 million followers on Instagram alone.
Interestingly, her elder son was born in the same year as Green. She has two sons, Kniko Howard born in 2002, and Jru Howard, born in 2016.
This is not the first time an NBA star has made the headlines for dating an older woman. Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown, who currently has the largest contract in NBA history, has dated Bernice Burgos, who is 17 years older than him. In fact, Charlotte Hornets star, LaMelo Ball is also dating someone older than him.

A fan seems to believe ladies will love this kind of union.
It's only problematic if the man is older lil bro. Most of the ladies will celebrate this union.
