VIDEO: SHELDEN WILLIAMS TALKS ABOUT FATHERHOOD
NBA player Shelden Williams sits courtside with his daughter Lailaa,1, at a Los Angeles Sparks game in early June.
“When Shelden Williams isn’t suiting up for the Boston Celtics, you will most likely see him sitting courtside at Los Angeles Sparks games. Typically his daughter Lailaa is nearby or sitting on his lap while his wife and Lailaa’s mom, or Candace Parker to the rest of us, is out on the court. There’s no doubt that Lailaa is surrounded by the game of basketball at such a young age, and in the video that follows Williams describes what it’s like to share the off-court responsibilities of raising a family with Parker (Source).”
Also in the video is NBA coach Jason Terry of the Dallas Mavericks. Shelden’s interview starts at the 1:01 mark.

Is it just me, or does this story and picture remind anyone else of the movie “Love & Basketball” lol? Especially from the last scene in the movie.
My exact thoughts as well! I love that movie!
Looks like dad but I def. see Candance in there. She is so cute!
She is a cute little girl.
In the case of 1 year old Lailaa, Shelden…YOU ARE THE FATHER! The child is the spitting image of that man!
Yes… She is…
Lailaa is SO cute. That sweater is a real throwback lol
She does look particularly young. Lailaa is a cutie!
Lailaa Williams is a cutie!
Shelden look funny here. Nice family! Candace looks all of 12 years old lol
Lailaa looks so much like her daddy. Yes Candace does look young but she’s 24 yrs old now. Both Candace and Sheldon appear to be great parents and I wish them well!
I didn’t know she was 24…i’m 24 too and am told i look 20-21, but she looks like she’s in high school (grade 9 or 10). How old is Shelden? He looks about 29.
