Tim Duncan Wife Cheating Rumors Take Back Seat As Spurs Look To 5th NBA Title [Video]
The Tim Duncan wife cheating rumors and other minutiae surrounding their recently revealed divorce proceedings will have to take a back seat as Duncan's Spurs begin their matchup against the Heat in the NBA Finals on Thursday.
Whether Duncan's wife cheated stems from reports last week that Duncan and his wife of 12 years, Amy, were getting a divorce.
The Tim Duncan divorce filing happened on the eve of this season's playoffs, and Amy was said to have filed for divorce a little over a month ago as the Spurs began their quest to capture Duncan's fifth title since being drafted by the Spurs in 1997.
She promptly moved out of the home they share together in San Antonio and he's been seen leaving the AT&T Center with just his nanny and kids.
But the Duncan wife cheating issue came about after it was reported he'd hired a private investigator earlier in the season to trail his wife, with the perception being that she'd been stepping out on the 10-time NBA All-Star.
Now, after the Miami Heat defeated the Indiana Pacers in game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals last night, the Spurs are set to start the NBA Finals against the Heat on Thursday night in Miami.
All this comes as Duncan is marred in the divorce story that's quite unlike his stoic and largely private personal life.
The Duncan wife cheating rumors must be particularly arduous as he attempts to get ready for the series.
Tuning out distractions is part of what Duncan and other professional athletes have to experience any time their personal lives are made public.
But Duncan has been particularly clear that his private, family life isn't for public consumption.
That's what make the Tim Duncan wife cheating rumors so hard, and even though the private investigators report after following Amy Duncan around earlier in the year haven't been revealed, most believe it will come back negative.
The Tim Duncan wife cheating rumors might be false, but the NBA Finals are very real and the San Antonio Spurs have never lost a Finals series since Duncan joined the team a few years before marrying his Wake Forest sweetheart.
