Houston Rockets star Jalen Green, 22, is dating 39-year-old reality television star Draya Michele.
Michele, a media personality, actress and fashion designer, is no stranger to athlete relationships. She previously was engaged to marry former Dallas Cowboys star Orlando Scandrick, whom she has a child with. Michele, who grew up in Pennsylvania, also reportedly dated hip-hop star Chris Brown.
But Michele has since moved on to Green, the young Houston Rockets star. The couple welcomed a daughter born in May of 2024.
Michele has been in attendance at several Houston Rockets games this year. The Rockets are playing well this year, as they are 26-12 on the season, leading the Southwest Division. Michele, though, recently sparked controversy with an outfit at a game.
Michele, who is no stranger to sizzling outfits, turned heads with a provocative sweater at a game at the start of January.
"Omg 🔥🔥🔥 who is your stylist 😍," one fan wrote.
"Trendsetter… Fashionkilla…🔥🔥🔥," one fan added.
"I love this top actually 😍," one fan added.
"Winner winner 💯," another fan added.
Michele recently went viral on social media for a post about the L.A. fires, as she promoted a brand deal.
"While the unimaginable is happening with the fires in LA… air quality is so poor, toxic even. I'm using the @sereniby_official air purifier to ensure that my kids and pets are breathing in fresh, double filtered air. The brand is now offering $200 off when you use my link in bio. There's no price on peace of mind but having it is more valuable than most worldly things. #prayforla #airquality #airpurifier," she wrote.
Michele took heat in the comment section of her post, as many criticized her for trying to profit off of the devastating Southern California fires.
Our thoughts remain with everyone in the area during this difficult time.
Jalen Green and the Rockets, meanwhile, are set to play the Nuggets on Wednesday night. Tipoff is set for 9 p.m. E.T.
