Kelly Oubre Jr. is involved in a legal dispute with his ex-girlfriend after the lady tried to extort the player out of $3 million or she would start a campaign to destroy Kelly’s reputation. The Golden State Warriors star filed a lawsuit against Makena LeDuff earlier this week in Los Angeles, which is the second time Oubre does it after he did the same in 2019.

G.S. Warrior star Kelly Oubre claims his ex-GF tried to extort him out of nearly $3 million … and if he didn’t pay up, she’d launch a smear campaign intended to destroy his reputation.
The allegations are part of a lawsuit filed by the 25-year-old hooper in Los Angeles.
Oubre — a 6-year NBA vet who was a former 1st-round draft pick — claims his ex, Makena LeDuff, contacted him on January 11, 2021, and demanded a large sum of money … or she would retaliate against him.
“Makena demanded that Kelly her pay her nearly $3 million or she would make public her false, scurrilous, and extortionate allegations by the end of the week,” the lawsuit reads.
The suit claims LeDuff contacted Oubre and threatened to say he was engaged in “criminal conduct” and make other false allegations … all “crafted to cause maximum and irreparable harm to Kelly, his reputation, and his career.”
As stated before, this is the first time Oubre finds himself in this position. He first filed suit against LeDuff in 2019, accusing her of stealing his two dogs and damaging Oubre’s property.
The player is trying to get his two pets back as well as LeDuff paying for all the property he damaged. This situation doesn’t help Oubre, who has struggled to find his touch with the Warriors this season. This another thing he has to worry about now amid a season with more doubts than certainties for the player.
