Former NBA star Kenyon Martin wants a huge change to happen in his life and it has everything to do with the amount of money that comes out of his bank account every month to pay child support and other expenses.
Martin is arguing with the courts that his income is no longer the same as it was when he was bringing in millions during his 15-year career.
The Blast has the details:
According to court documents obtained by The Blast, Martin filed documents as part of his child support case with his ex, Heather Martin. The couple had three children together, two of which are still minors: 16-year-old Cierra and 14-year-old Kamron.
The two sides reached an agreement back in 2007 that called for Kenyon to pay $3,000 a month in child support, which Kenyon wants to revise based on his current income.
The former NBA star claims his projected income for 2019 is $209,782 and says he will earn another $100,000 from his gig as a coach in the Big 3 Basketball league.
The Martins’ support agreement also called for Kenyon to make several other payments that fell under the designation of “additional child support.”
The other payments Martin is also responsible for is purchasing a new car for Heather every three years, her credit card up to $7,000 every month, private school for the kids, a nanny, and other various expenses.
He is asking for all of those payments to stop.
Martin earned over $108 million in his career. Kenyon states that he is in the process of selling his home in Calabasas and moving to Atlanta “where the cost of living is cheaper because as is clear, I cannot afford to continue in the manner that I have.”
