Bucks guard Damian Lillard made a major decision this week involving his longtime partner, Kay’La Hanson.
Lillard, who was recently traded from the Trail Blazers to the Bucks, has filed for divorce. He met his wife at Weber State University. They got married in 2021 and have three children together.
According to records obtained by KATU, Lillard filed for divorce because of “irreconcilable differences” that caused the “irremediable breakdown of their marriage.
The reactions to this news have been mixed to say the least.
