Despite having an incredible and record-breaking NBA career, Dennis has arguably become known for his controversial relationships and eccentric persona. The five-time NBA Champion was drafted by the Detroit Pistons in 1986 and earned two championships with the team until his departure in 1993, per ESPN. After a two-year stint with the San Antonio Spurs, Dennis was traded to the Chicago Bulls in 1995, where he would play alongside league greats like Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen. During his time with the Bulls, Dennis helped lead the team to three consecutive championships from 1996 to 1998. It was around this time, that he met in 1999.
Per the Los Angeles Times, the couple married in May 2003. At the time, Deniss told the publication that the two had different residences and had no plans of living together. "We won't live together. I like it like that. She and the kids come over on weekends," he shared. Throughout their relationship, Dennis and Moyer had two children: a son named Dennis Jr., aka DJ, in April 2001, and Trinity in May 2002. The marriage didn't last long, however, and Moyer filed for divorce in 2004. Despite attempts at reconciling their relationship off-and-on for the next eight years, the two ultimately dissolved their marriage in 2012, which partially was due to Dennis owing nearly $860,000 in child support, as reported by the LA Times.
As for Dennis's relationship with Trinity, the two have had a strained bond over the years. Nonetheless, Trinity maintains that Dennis will always be her dad, no matter what. When Dennis attended one of Trinity's games, the football star took to Instagram to share her thoughts on the special moment. "My dad doesn't play a big role in my life at all and most people don't know that, we don't see eye to eye on many things. I go months if not years without his presence or communication. Being in spotlights has been hard for us, him and me. We don't have the best relationship, but at the end of the day he's human I'm human...he's my dad, and I'm his little girl that will never change," she wrote in part.
