Tristan Thompson is now fighting back against a woman who claims he got her pregnant.
According to Page Six, Thompson has filed an emergency gag order in an attempt to prevent his alleged baby mama, Maralee Nichols, from taking their paternity suit even more public than it already is.
“In his filing, obtained by Page Six, Thompson claims the personal trainer’s “intention all along [was] to try to achieve some sort of notoriety and gain for herself in this lawsuit.”
Thompson, 30, alleges that Nichols’ inclusion of Snapchat messages purportedly sent between the two — which he denies ever writing or sending — is an “attempt to smear” him and they are “wholly and clearly fabricated,” according to the filing.
Thompson also claims Nichols “alerted the media” of him allegedly fathering her child and of the competing lawsuits in California and Texas, despite the court previously granting a protective order to guard documents that contain sensitive personal information.
The Sacramento Kings star also added in the filing that he’s suffered “damages and extreme distress.” He’s requesting the court hold an emergency hearing for a complete gag order, and also wants Nichols to post a $30,000 bond to “deter” her from violating the order.
Nichols claimed in the paternity suit that Thompson impregnated her in March on his 30th birthday, when he and Khloé Kardashian were still dating. She is currently suing for child support.

Thompson has since admitted to having sex with Nichols several times at a hotel.
