Nikki Spoelstra, the ex-wife of Miami Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra, was forced to speak out after social media made her a topic of conversation.
The Miami Heat coach’s ex cleared up any confusion, directly targeting those online spreading rumors.
Erik Spoelsta’s ex-wife has seen her name make the rounds on the internet after someone made claims that she was in a rumored relationship with a player on the heat at one point, which caused her marriage to fall apart.
Nikki explained that there was “a f–king story that is 100 percent, flat out not true,” but did not specifically name anybody.
Nikki Spoelstra’s fiery address came amid a baseless rumor on social media that she was involved with Jaime Jaquez Jr., who is currently on the team’s roster.
The power of a random rumor is greater than most people would perceive.
“Oh, this is going to be fun,” Nikki said in her response.
“Y’all streets give me way too much power when s–t doesn’t go your way in pro sports. It’s one thing for you sports fanatics to come onto my page after I made a really big life choice and talk crazy, and it’s another thing entirely for you to come to my page to harass me and call me crazy names over something, a rumor, a f–king story that is 100 percent flat out not true.
Nikki, who is a former Heat dancer, also revealed that she spoke with “the girlfriend” and the “mom” of the player in question, and they were all laughing out loud at the situation.
“… You come over here with your dirty feet in my space — I’m going to address you and call you out,” Nikki said. “So this little rumor that you sports trolls are going wild about, I would never do that for two main reasons which I actually don’t feel the obligation to explain to you just that it would not happen and it’s not real.
“And while your story might be entertaining with these plot assumptions, there are so many holes in your story and quite frankly it’s just really bad storytelling. So while all of you guys are entertaining yourselves with this fabricating nonsense, I already talked to the girlfriend, I already talked to the mom and the three of us are over here rolling our eyes at all you knuckleheads.

Jaime Jaquez Jr., a standout youngster for the Miami Heat, has been dating Ciera Muscarella since 2016.
“Here’s the deal you’re not allowed to come to my page calling me names. I know what some of you are thinking, ‘you’re a public person, you open your page up for the public.’ That’s true, you’re still not allowed to come to my space and talk s–t to me like that. No sir. No ma’am. I’m just surprised that you guys are still giving me so much power when things are going your way in sports. And let’s not forget, according to a lot of you guys, I’m too ugly and too old for this s–t anyway.”
Nikki Spoelstra And Erik Were Married For Seven Years

Nikki and Erik were married in July 2016, but by 2023, the couple would make a joint statement to the Miami Herald announcing their divorce.
“We have made the difficult yet amicable decision to jointly file to formally end our marriage,” Erik and Nikki wrote. “We are both grateful for our relationship and remain fully committed to co-parenting our children and continuing to make them our shared priority. We appreciate everyone’s support as we move to the next stage of our lives and thank you for respecting our family’s privacy.”
The biggest news around that time was when the Miami Heat allegedly waited for his divorce to go through before rewarding him with a mega $120 million contract.
