A Sea Of Red

Saw this go by on Twitter last night, but wasn't sure it was true. Maybe it's not, but Fox Sports has picked up on it.

Redick reportedly was involved in a nasty legal snarl with Orlando model Vanessa Lopez early in his career, and now documents are being leaked despite a previous confidentiality agreement.

Media Takeout obtained paperwork that detailed an “abortion contract” -- as the site dubs it -- between Redick and Lopez after she became pregnant.

Lopez, known in NBA circles for being linked to other players, would have to show Redick medical proof of an abortion. In return, he agreed to continue their relationship for one year. He also agreed to pay Lopez $25,000 if their relationship didn’t last a year.

Here's the supposed contract.

This is all very real but I think there is more to this story. I do know that Redick was not "forcing her hand" into this contract. This was actually her idea. The actual contract dates back to 2007, around the time that he was drafted and around the time that he was arrested for possession. Everybody has baggage.
