So who is Mallory Edens?

Edens entered the NBA world after dad Wes got her a spot representing Milwaukee at the 2014 NBA Draft, where she became an internet darling, garnering her hundreds of new followers on social media, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported.

She took advantage of the newfound attention and showed off her NBA access on Instagram with snapshots of herself courtside. Edens also posted pictures of herself holding the Larry O’Brien trophy when the Bucks won the championship in 2021.

It seems Edens — who is 13 years younger than Rodgers — is keen on following her father’s footsteps in owning an NBA empire. She told TMZ Sports in 2017 that she wanted “to buy the Knicks one day” and “we’ll see how that works out.”

With her strong social media presence — 228,000 Instagram and 50,200 Twitter followers — Edens started a modelling career. Represented by Women Management Los Angeles, the Daily Mail reported Edens has worked alongside designers such as Alaïa and Alessandra Rich as her modelling gig continues to grow.

Before entering the spotlight, Edens was a prime collegiate athlete. She was avid in track and field, as well as equestrian sports before a skull fracture following a horse riding accident halted the latter.
