Ime Udoka allegedly cheated on his ex, Nia Long.

The settlement, negotiated by Long's attorney, Samantha Spector, takes into account Long's high earnings as an actress and businesswoman. Despite Udoka's monthly disposable income of $465,804, the agreed-upon child support amount is $32,500 per month.

The custody agreement also addresses the issue of timeshare. As the head coach for the Houston Rockets, Udoka has extensive travel commitments during the NBA season.

For the 2023-2024 season, Udoka has less than a 5% timeshare with their son, while Long has around 95% timeshare in Los Angeles, California.

The custody battle initially began when Long filed legal documents seeking sole physical and legal custody of their son, with visitation rights for Udoka. Udoka responded by seeking joint custody, including equal authority in important decisions.

The breakup between the two garnered attention due to accusations of infidelity on Udoka's part, which led to his termination from the Boston Celtics.

Long has spoken publicly about the emotional toll the split has taken on their son. She also expressed her disappointment that the Celtics organization did not reach out to see if she and her children were okay after the publicization of their private situation.

Long's rep said the two were “no longer together but remain fully committed to co-parenting their son.”

Another source close to the mother said that “the situation is unfortunate and painful, but that Long is focusing on her children and rebuilding her life.”

“I’ve had some pretty devastating moments in my life over the last couple of months,” Long said in another recent chat.

“And I’ve had to just say, ‘It’s alright. You’ll pick yourself back up and’ — oh my god. I’m about to cry. ‘You’ll pick yourself back up and keep moving,” she added.
