Zion Williamson came into the 2019 draft, as the most hyped NBA prospect since the King, LeBron James. Williamson was taken with the 1st overall pick by the New Orleans Pelicans. The 6’6 power forward had media outlets hailing him as the next face of the NBA without ever stepping foot on an NBA floor.
Four years later, Williamson has shown flashes of being a superstar talent, however, his career has already been plagued with injuries and has dampened the unending fire that once was Zion Williamson.
Barring one of the best NBA debuts ever seen in the league, Zion has work to do if he wants to live up to his pre-draft expectations, namely stay healthy for a whole season. With recent events, it seems that Zion will have even more inspiration to perform well in the upcoming season, as it was recently announced that he is going to become a father. Zion is expecting a baby girl with his girlfriend Ahkeema.What does Zion Williamson’s girlfriend Ahkeema do?
On Tuesday, the 5th of June, Zion Williamson and his girlfriend Ahkeema announced to the world that they were going to have a baby. Through a YouTube video and other videos posted on socials we see their gender reveal party, and at the start of the video Zion heartwarmingly says,
“My baby, you’re going to see this at some point. I don’t know what the future holds. But Mommy and Daddy love you. If you don’t know anything else in this world, know that Mommy and Daddy love you.”
It is unclear how she and Williamson met or got together. However, there are reports that she engaged in promiscuous activities. Nonetheless. it is established the two are in a relationship together. Williamson is already a stepfather to Ahkeema’s son, whose name has not been revealed to the public.
