It’s been a good summer so far for Cleveland Cavaliers guard Iman Shumpert. He resigned with the Cleveland Cavaliers–the team many are picking to win the NBA title this season–for $40 million dollar contract, and life can’t get any better. Well, Shump has reached new heights, now that he’s set to become a father. Shumpert has confirmed that he will be come a first-time father with girlfriend Teyana Taylor. He took to his Instagram to inform his followers of the news. Here’s his caption:
‘When a man loves a woman how she was born to be loved…procreation is the best blessing you can receive! I couldn’t be more happy than to share my first child with the woman I intended to have my family with. Iman Tayla Shumpert Jr is expected to enter this world “1.16.16”. We want that world to be as pure as possible for her. We people, show the world what we feel the world should see when we want them to see it…something this beautiful had to be announced when we were ready for everyone to know…this is what happiness grows into! I love you@teyanataylor thank you for your sacrifice in starting our very own family! P.s. I know you see my daughter with her hand behind her head and her feet kicked up…??…she’s already daddy’s little girl!!!”
The arrival of the baby looks to be scheduled for the middle of the NBA season, so hopefully the youngest member of the Shumpert-Taylor family can be here to see their daddy try to help bring a title back to Cleveland.
