Redick is not too pleased that his abortion contract with Vanessa Lopez has become public. Considering <a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/jjredick\">he describes himself as a Christian<\/a>, that&#8217;s not entirely surprising. The contract, and Lopez&#8217; allegations that the abortion was coerced, certainly don&#8217;t paint him in a flattering light. So what did Redick do? He took to Twitter, and denied that he ever got her pregnant:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p>I&#8217;d like to respond to the outrageous, false and malicious media reports regarding a prior relationship between myself and V Lopez in 2007-<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 JJ Redick (@JJRedick) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JJRedick\/statuses\/360177332469776385\">July 24, 2013<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p>Ms Lopez was not and has never been pregnant with a child fathered by me.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 JJ Redick (@JJRedick) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JJRedick\/statuses\/360177439122530306\">July 24, 2013<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p>And Ms. Lopez did not and has never terminated a pregnancy of a child fathered by me.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 JJ Redick (@JJRedick) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JJRedick\/statuses\/360177539752275968\">July 24, 2013<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p>Continued attention to these lies is severely damaging to myself and my family.

The actual documents are out there, and they speak pretty clearly.<\/p>\n<p>Pay close attention to his careful wording. Redick claims Lopez was never pregnant with a child <em>fathered by him<\/em>, and that Lopez never terminated a pregnancy of a child <em>father by him<\/em>. With that in mind, check out paragraph five from his contract:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/ku-xlarge.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-38555\" alt=\"ku-xlarge\" src=\"\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/ku-xlarge-300x162.png\" width=\"300\" height=\"162\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/ku-xlarge-300x162.png 300w, https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/ku-xlarge.png 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Evidently, Redick was planning ahead. One might wonder why exactly Redick would feel the need to pay for his ex-girlfriend&#8217;s abortion if the child wasn&#8217;t his, or why he&#8217;d also try to bribe her with offers of a relationship or $25,000&#8230; all for a kid he had no legal obligations to. It also doesn&#8217;t explain <a href=\"http:\/\/deadspin.com\/304297\/if-you-anger-jj-redick-his-brother-will-text-your-ass\">why his brother would continue to harass Lopez<\/a>, or why his attorney would be <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jillstanek.com\/2013\/07\/breaking-documents-show-nba-player-coerced-pregnant-girlfriend-to-abort\/\">contacting Lopez to ensure she went through with the abortion<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Far from calming the media firestorm, Redick has just made himself look worse, like a liar who will use women, throw them away, and then refuse to acknowledge what he did. Looks like Redick will be bro-choice to the end.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LA Clippers player J.J.
