Former Kings guard Jeremy Lamb announced his retirement from basketball last month, but hes not going out without a scandal.
He is dating Kings owner Vivek Ranadivs daughter, Anjali, who was the GM of the teams G-League affiliate, the Stockton Kings, from June 2023
Anjali resigned from her position in January and at the time, it was reported she stepped away from the position to pursue other ventures, TMZ says.
Lamb joined the Kinga via a trade in February 2022. He was waived a year later, but was brought back to the G-League in November, where he played under Anjali until he was shut down for the season with a back injury in March.
It is unclear whether the two got together before they both left Sacramento or not, but teams dont take kindly to internal fraternization. When Ime Udoka was having an affair with a Celtics staffer, he was suspended him for the entire 2022-23 season for violating team policies.
So, one has to wonder whether Anjali and Lamb were keeping their relationship under wraps before they left the Kings.
The couple went public with their relationship in an Instagram post on Monday. The post shows them kissing in one of the slides and playing with wolf dogs to promote Anjalis Jaws and Paws animal sanctuary.
Lamb played a total of ten seasons in the NBA for the the Thunder, Hornets, Pacers and Kings and was a lottery pick in 2012.
Basketball has been good to me throughout my entire life, so this decision didnt come easy, but I have decided to retire from the game that has given me everything, Lamb wrote on Instagram in August. Now, its time to catch another dream!
Lamb is only 32 years of age, which is fairly young to be ending an NBA career, but he was dealt his fair share of injuries, including an his ACL and MCL tear in 2019, and his abilities never recovered.
