Larsa Pippen and Scottie Pippen got married in 1997. They were together for 24 years and welcomed four children before divorced in 2021. Scotty Pippen Jr. (23) is their eldest child and only son currently playing in the NBA, following in his father's footsteps.
Preston (22) previously played basketball at high school, however, he did not pursue it professionally. He seems to be following his mother's footsteps, as he recently walked the runway for Philipp Plein's 2025 Fashion Show at the Milan Fashion Week earlier this month.
Justin (19) has also dabbled with modeling, however, his focus remains on basketball. He concluded his high school career as a four-star senior and is set to begin his freshman season at Michigan.
Larsa and Scottie also have a 15-year-old daughter, Sophia. She has been modeling professionally since she was five years old.
