BALLER BABY ON THE WAY: Pacer Dahntay Jones & Wife Valeisha Butterfield Are EXPECTING!

Jan 30 | by Natasha

Indiana Pacers' Guard-Forward Dahntay Jones is the newest baller with a baby on the way. He and wife Valeisha Butterfield-Jones--founder of WEEN--are pregnant!

Deets inside...

Valeisha and Dahntay got married 6 months ago in her home state of North Carolina. And they wasted no time popping out a baby. Valeisha celebrated her birthday today by posting to her Facebook page this announcement:

Thank you everyone for your warm & loving bday wishes! Today I celebrate my bday & this little bun in my oven! :-)

The former executive director of Russell Simmons' Hip Hop Summit Action Network is now the director of President Obama’s National Youth Vote Director for his 2012 bid for re-election.

Valeisha recently told EDGE magazine how she found love with Dahntay after her two failed relationships with ex-fiance' The Game and ex-boyfriend Terrence J:

“I had given up. I’m in my 30s and I’d given up. I’d had relationships and something just wasn’t quite clicking and I thought I’d just pour everything I have into my career.

I knew right away. In the beginning he had a spark and a light about him that I had ever seen before in a man, especially a man in his profession."

Congrats to the couple!

Both of them are dumb, this

Both of them are dumb, this is baby #4! V just wanted a baby with a "baller" and he was dumb enough to marry her and then knock her up within the 1st year. Real love?! Naw, you can't build a future with a foundation of lies. But congrats to the both of them for both getting what they wanted. Fake people deserve to be with other fake people so with that said they are PREFECT for each other!!!! May God bless your poor innocent kids!

How long were they dating

How long were they dating before they got married? Because I was partying with him and some of his NBA baller friends at LIV back in July and he ended up leaving the club with a blonde, blue eyed girl. :-/

I was chillen with them too

I was chillen with them too earlier in the year. Sad thing is he never claimed her... Guess that's why their pr generates post like this....I knew it was a matter of time b4 she got knocked up. She knows Dahntays a cheat & she doesn't care. Val wants people to know that he's her husband and everything that going on between them bcuz 1 she has the connects and 2 she's probably hoping wmn don't mess with him by creating these public service announcements. They want the attention, but doing so can lead to an unhappy marriage. I hope he's better in bed than when I was with him #lazy!! Dahntays a polite guy tho lol he's treats the hoes nice.

And how exactly are they not

And how exactly are they not relevant? Here is an African Amerian professional athlete, his African American WIFE that works for the President on a site called THE YOUNG BLACK and FAMOUS. Oh maybe she was suppose to be a video vixen from Love and Hip Hop, or one of these "non-wives" on a "Real Housewives of" show, and then youd know who they are right?

I soooo agree with you! Why is it that people are not "relevant" if they are doing, positive, progressive, drama-free things? Speaks to mentally, or lack thereof, unfortunately.

Well uness everyone is a virgin, we all have a past and we all have slept with someone who has slept with someone else. Why does the woman have to justify her sexual past? Does he have a past with celebrity women that needs to be investigated and commented on? If they are happy....nothing else matters.

That's the BEST! I LOVE dating men that I have to stand on my toes to reach them and they have to still squat down . . . even when I'm wearing 4-5 inch heels. Yay Valeisha. Except I'm a tad bit sad. I had a huge crush on Dahntay when we were at the same college. lol. Let's go Duke!
