In a recent statement, Larsa reflected on the experience, stating that the separation gave her newfound clarity. She expressed that it became evident that certain individuals had formed friendships with her largely due to Scottie.
“The first time I felt like I started losing friends is when I was going through a divorce. And I really realized that a lot of people in my life liked me just for being Scotty’s wife…They basically liked me more when I was Scotty’s wife, and not necessarily Larsa, and I was trying to figure out who Larsa was. I didn’t know how to navigate being single,” Larsa said in a recent episode of her podcast.
In 2022, Larsa initiated a relationship with Marcus Jordan, the son of basketball legend Michael Jordan. The two developed a significant connection, with Marcus indicating in a recent interview that they had contemplated marriage.

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green is known as one of the most aggressive players in NBA history. Throughout his career, he has been involved in numerous on-court altercations. One notable incident occurred during a recent game against the Detroit Pistons.
During the fourth quarter of an intense game against the Pistons, Dennis Schroder dove into the stands to save a ball that had gone out of bounds. In the process, he accidentally collided with a courtside fan. Following this incident, the officials began checking on the person seated at the courtside.
Meanwhile, heated exchanges took place between Green and Ron Holland. However, the referee decided to let the argument continue without issuing any penalties. In the post-game interview, Green reflected on the incident.
“I thought the officials did a good job. They let it play all day,” Green said after the game. “They let guys talk, they didn’t break it up. Guys started talking again, and they let them play out some more. Beautiful. This game should be better. We’re playing this league now. They probably… you get turned into a robot. You don’t see any of that stuff, and then everyone says the ratings are down. Yeah, of course. No s**t.” Green said.
Green scored just 7 points, along with four assists and five rebounds, in 32 minutes of play. The Warriors won the game against the Pistons with a final score of 107-104.
