Delonte West Marries Melissa Anaya Ahead of Boxing Match

Delonte West, a former NBA player, has married his longtime girlfriend Melissa Anaya, just days before his boxing match against Michael Beasley. The announcement was made via a social media post where West shared an image and noted that his comeback story continues.

This marks West's third marriage, following his divorces in 2010 and 2020. His boxing career has been linked to Beasley through Adin Ross’ Brand Risk Promotions, which is organizing the upcoming fight event.

West was drafted by the Boston Celtics in 2004 and later played for the Cleveland Cavaliers. His basketball career faced challenges due to legal issues, including a 2009 arrest for firearm possession. After stepping away from professional basketball in 2012, West encountered further legal troubles and has struggled with mental health and substance abuse. His recent marriage announcement follows a media event where he addressed longstanding rumors regarding his relationship with Gloria James, mother of LeBron James.
