Yes, people are doing a lot about Draya. Yes, the relationship can be viewed as inappropriate, but to be fair, this is the first nigga athlete she's dated who's made a hell of a lot of money and has a career on the rise. It's not the same as posting about how you get traded every other season

Lol Draya re-publishing this contract is pretty shameful as the players themselves don't even publish their contracts nor do their wives or girlfriends

Congratulations to Draya on the contract extension with Jalen Green. She worked hard and earned this

I don't understand the Draya hate. Essentially, if YOUR romantic partner received a significant raise that significantly increased the quality of life for your family and your NEW child, wouldn't you rejoice and congratulate them??…oh 😂

Meanwhile, fans of the couple are still waiting to see their daughter for the first time. The baby appeared on her mother's Instagram feed a few times, but there were no shots where her face was visible.
