“Mama brought you into this world! Now Tydus and Dada are gonna forever protect you in this world. Teal Dove Young,” Trae Young wrote on his X account.

Trae and Shelby Young met during their time at the University of Oklahoma, where Trae led the Sooners to the NCAA Men’s Tournament and Shelby cheered at the university.

The couple tied the knot earlier this year with a ceremony in the Bahamas that was widely attended by Young’s Hawks teammates, other NBA players and celebrities.
