Watching Andre Iguodala retire after an extraordinary 19-year career was truly emotional for fans and teammates alike. From his historic debut season with the Philadelphia 76ers—where he became the only rookie to record a triple-double for the team—to helping lead the Golden State Warriors to four NBA Championship titles, Iguodala’s journey has been nothing short of legendary.

While Iggy often shares his basketball wisdom on the Point Forward podcast, he is known for keeping his personal life private. Nonetheless, his son, Andre Iguodala Jr., has occasionally stepped into the limelight, showing promise in his own right. Iguodala has managed to balance his public career with a preference for privacy when it comes to his family life. So, how many kids does Iguodala have? Is he married? Let’s see!

Whom did Andre Iguodala get married to?

Andre Iguodala married his childhood love, Christina Gutierrez, in a private and intimate ceremony in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, in 2015. At the time, he was playing for the Golden State Warriors, and their wedding was a special event attended by some of his closest teammates and friends from the basketball world. Among the guests were Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, Harrison Barnes, Festus Ezeli, Kent Bazemore, Rudy Gay, and former teammate Jermaine O’Neal, who had a strong bond with Iguodala despite being retired.

While the couple has always been private about their personal life, it is known that they share a son. Their wedding, like much of their private life, was kept low-key, focusing on rather than a public spectacle.

Is Andre Iguodala’s son better than Bronny James?

Iguodala played for four teams throughout his illustrious NBA career, known for his unique talent and versatility. Many believe some of that athleticism and flair has been passed down to his son, Andre Iguodala Jr. He was born in March 2007. While the Illinois native is known for keeping his personal life private, he has occasionally shared moments about his son, including a lighthearted comment about how Iguodala Jr. is now taller than him. For context, Iguodala stands at 6’6″.

“My son, he’s taller than me right now. So, I gotta remind him that I still got it,” he joked in an interview. In 2022, the 4-time NBA champion also shared a heartfelt post on social media to wish his son a happy birthday. Former NBA player Evan Turner once humorously remarked that he knew someone who could give LeBron James’ son a run for his money on the court—and it was none other than Iguodala Jr. It’s clear that the talent and competitive spirit run strong in the Iguodala family.

“I was talking to Iman Shumpert because we went to middle school together. And then LeBron came over to me because I’m [a former Ohio State] Buckeye or whatever, and I told him I know a little guy who can beat his young guy. He asked me who and I said Andre Iguodala Jr…We just laughed about that,” Turner said as per an article by Complex.

James, understanding the joke, laughed in response. But the kid is good and dedicated to his dreams. As per sources, the small forward attends Link Academy in Branson, located in southwest Missouri. Speaking of his skillset, Iguodala Jr. once said, “I came here 150 lbs. I’m like 165 right now. So I gained 15 lbs in the last few months. Being big and stronger helps me be more confident. I’m also trying to become more of a point guard on the ball. Have point guard skills. And then my defense has improved a lot.” The former basketball player is also known to have a daughter.

What is the controversy involving Andre Iguodala’s daughter?

Back in 2009, Clayanna Warthen, a woman who had been in a relationship with Andre Iguodala from October 2004 to January 2009, filed a legal case against the basketball player. At the time, Iguodala was playing for the Philadelphia 76ers. The couple had a daughter named London, and the legal action centered around child support. Warthen was awarded $16,000 a month for the support of their daughter.

Warthen later gained some public attention, appearing in the 11th season of Basketball Wives. She also made appearances alongside artists Cassidy and Young Jeezy. In 2016, she filed another lawsuit, seeking an increase in child support to $58,000 a month. She cited her daughter’s high IQ of 151 and her love for basketball. Warthen claimed that Iguodala was not covering all of London’s tuition costs, and requested additional funds for various personal expenses. This included a personal chef and $7,000 for courtside seats at 76ers games, as reported by TMZ.

Iguodala’s legal team responded, explaining that these requests were excessive and unrelated to the child’s basic needs. Details on the case have remained scarce since, and no further updates have been provided. How do you feel about Iguodala’s personal life? Tell us in the comment section below!
