Twitter Files: Larsa Pippen Legit Hates Christian Laettner
Donβt mess with an Assyrian woman. Unlike a legion of non Duke fans, Larsa Pippen actually has a legit reason to hate Christian Laettner, and she let it all out on him on Twitter this week.
While her outburst may have seemed to come out of nowhere it turns out that Laettner has been in the Pippens debt for YEARSβ¦
According to TMZ reports:
Around 2007, Pippen invested a ton of money with Laettner and his partners to buy a stake in the Memphis Grizzlies β¦ but when the deal fizzled, he never got his money back.
Pippen sued Laettner and his partners and was awarded a $2.5 million judgment β but have NOT received the full amount.
Enter Larsa Pippen β¦ who took the beef public this week β tweeting at Laettner, βHey @laettnerbball are you ever gonna pay us back homie?β
βItβs crazy youβve been f***ing us around forever @laettnerbball. Homie how do u sleep at night.β
Sources connected to the case tell us Laettner still owes at least $600,000 to the Pippens.
Itβs been a LONG time since Christian Laettner was making NBA money, but that college coach money ainβt nothing to sneeze at either. Still dude has his own family to take care of so itβs not implausible to believe he just doesnβt have the $600K + to pay Scottie and Larsa back right now β but if the Grizzlies deal never went through, why didnβt he just give them the money back in the first place.
Tell the truth Christian, you spent Scottieβs paper?
