Larsa Pippen is basking in the moment! For the Real Housewives of Miami actress, her kids are the priority. She is the biggest supporter of her four kids, all of whom are following their passions. The kids, too, are very protective of their mother. From social media to friends, her Gen Z kids constantly guide her. She is also big when it comes to supporting her sons during their games whether in person or from far. And there’s one rule that she always follows on demand of her son, Scotty. She didn’t break that during her recent appearance at her youngest son’s game.

Larsa’s son Scotty Pippen Jr. is making waves in the NBA, setting new records and more. On the other hand, her best friend and youngest son, Justin Pippen, is having an exciting run with the Michigan Wolverines. And the mother, who usually watches the games on TV, recently decided to attend one after a long time.

Taking to her IG story, she shared a snap of Justin’s group picture with his Wolverines team. The next snippet featured her walking to the game arena, and the third was of the cheerleading team. It can be assumed that Larsa might have been present at No. 17 Michigan’s game against No. 13 Maryland. She was there for her kid. 

Despite a good game, with Danny Wolf and Vlad Goldin combining to secure 40 points, the team lost 71-65 to Maryland. After their loss to Illinois, the team had hoped to secure a win, but ended up with two losses. Larsa’s presence must have brought some solace to her son. Larsa shared a snap where she hugged her son and another where the two posed for the camera. While Larsa missed out on her eldest son’s game, she ensured to support him on social media.

Larsa reshared Grizzlies’ official post, featuring snippets of the live action on her IG Stories. However, it is the norm for the reality star to keep a low profile whenever she attends her son’s games. Even Justin’s college games too. Is there any reason behind it?

Why doesn’t Larsa Pippen attend Scottie Pippen’s games?

Pippen once shared how she always likes to attend her son’s games. She wants to be present for them. However, she once shared that Scotty doesn’t prefer the same. He would rather have his mom watch the games on TV. While the mother of four prefers courtside seats, he definitely does not. And she understands the reason behind it!

During her appearance on the Going Rogue podcast, co-hosted with her best friend Michelle Pooch, Larsa shared several unknown stories and facts. One such revelation was how her kids scrutinize her social media posts. Another was about Scotty.

When little Scotty gives us seats and I say, ‘hey, I want to come, and I think I want to sit courtside.’ And he goes, ‘no, I want to give you the family seats. I want you to sit with the rest of the moms in the nosebleed [seats],” Larsa shared. She shared how both she and Scottie Pippen attended Scotty’s game when he began playing for the Memphis Grizzlies.

He does not want us to come to his game and like shine and like take attention away from [the team],” she explained the reason. It is understandable for the kids who have famous parents.
