Cavaliers guard Iman Shumpert helped deliver his infant daughter in a bathroom early Wednesday. Going against the traditional grain, Shumpertis giving a baby girl the “Jr.” tag.
Shumpert and girlfriend Teyana Taylor announced in August that Iman Shumpert likes his name so much that he wanted to give it to his daughter.
“When a man loves a woman how she was born to be loved…procreation is the best blessing you can receive!,” Daddy Shumpertposted on Instagram three months ago. “I couldn’t be more happy than to share my first child with the woman I intended to have my family with. Iman Taylor 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!!!” Obviously Jr. was a little early but she is reportedly in good health.
