Kyle Filipowski’s mom struggling to find peace with estranged NBA son: ‘Speculating about all this s–t’
NY Post
The situation between Kyle Filipowski and his family became one of the most bizarre and talked about storylines to come out of the 2024 NBA Draft, and now Becky Filipowski, Kyle’s mother, is breaking her silence to tell her side of the story.
Filipowski was selected 32nd overall by the Jazz, despite the expectation that he would be taken in the first round.
He then awkwardly found himself sitting in the NBA draft green room without hearing his name called.
In the day that followed, ESPN reported that teams had become wary of the Duke product because of his relationship with a “much older” girlfriend and how he was estranged from his family.
It sent into motion a chain of social media posts from Becky and Daniel Filipowski, Kyle’s brother, that only raised more questions.
“It was like the dam gates had been opened. And almost three years’ worth of trying to sweep it under the rug, and trying to check him out of our lives [ended],” Becky said in an interview with the Salt Lake City Tribune published on Thursday.
