Despite having two children, Mother’s Day hasn’t been special for Draya Michele since 2021, as it had become a day marked by the sorrow of losing her father. However, this year was different. And the shift in emotions was brought about by her third child, a daughter she had with the NBA star Jalen Green. The arrival of her baby girl filled Draya with joy and gave her all the more reason to create new memories on a day that had been earlier dimmed by grief. So, she does everything to ensure her daughter’s well-being and never compromises with her health and care. This is also why it’s unsurprising that she chooses Naomi Osaka’s brand for her newborn.
In her recent Instagram post, Draya revealed the brand of milk she trusts for her baby. The 39-year-old stated in her caption what gives her a seamless experience of motherhood. “Motherhood is… such an incredible honor and quite the learning experience. I’m still learning and growing everyday even after my 3rd baby. This is why I am so grateful to have @bobbie which gives me an extra peace of mind when it comes to feeding. Bobbie’s new Grass-fed Whole Milk Infant formula, has full cream nutrition that offers healthy milk fat and a creamy taste that my baby loves!” the Basketball Wives LA actress wrote.

The clip, featuring Draya with her daughter engaged in different activities, was part of a sponsored collaboration with the $420 million pediatric nutrition brand, which teamed up with the four-time Grand Slam champion this year in January after she gave birth to her daughter last year. Now, Draya also seems to be on board. Much like Mama Michele, Daddy Green is also completely charmed with their little one.
After Draya Michele, Jalen Green reflects on Fatherhood
While many at 22 like to take life lightly, Jalen Green has taken on a responsibility that has brought a lot of criticism his way, but none of it has caused him to drift. The Rockets guard welcomed his daughter with Draya on May 17 and has since been a devoted father. In fact, she has become his biggest source of inspiration, getting him to work even harder at his game.

“I have a family now. I’m not a rookie anymore,” Green told The Athletic reflecting on his mature side. He added, “Coming into the league, it was a little different, especially with the Rockets organization. We were losing and in a rebuild. Now, we’ve found ourselves and the goals we’re trying to achieve. With that comes more responsibility and maturity — how you carry yourself as an NBA player, a professional.”
Green’s ardent statement clearly shows his dedication to his daughter and his willingness to take on even greater responsibilities with the Houston franchise. Both Draya and Green’s commitment to their daughter silenced their critics, marking a step towards their positive growth.
