Basketball fans have seen some of the strongest connections between players throughout the league’s history. These bonds are often clear both during their playing days and even after retirement. However, that’s not the case when it comes to the relationship between Vernon Maxwell and Vincent Askew.
Former Houston Rockets guard Maxwell recently posted a concerning video on his Instagram account, warning fellow NBA players about the potential dangers of lending money to Askew.
“I want all my NBA brothers to know one thing about this one n***a that’s in our fraternity. He a sucka a** n***a. He ain’t s**t. If this n***a calls you and asks you for any type of money, this n***a is lying… ‘I’m going through this divorce’ and all this dumb sh*t.” Maxwell said.
Askew enjoyed a notable nine-season career in the league, during which he played for eight different teams and earned approximately $5.8 million.
Vernon Maxwell Claims Askew Owes Him Approximately $10,000
Maxwell had a successful 13-season career in the NBA, playing for several teams. He was widely recognized for his clutch three-point shooting ability. Notably, He’s one of just nine players in NBA history to score 30 points in a single quarter, which he accomplished during a remarkable 51-point game against the Cleveland Cavaliers on January 26, 1991. However, since hanging up his sneakers, financial stability has been a significant concern for him. Recently, in a video, Maxwell stated that Askew owes him about $10,000.
“The n**ga’s name is Vincent Askew. Do not give that n**ga f*****g dime… That n**ga is broke. Do not f*** with this broke-a** n**ga. This n**ga owes me $10,000. And I want my money from you b**ch-a** n**ga. If he calls anyone of my NBA brothers, man do not give that n**ga a motherf**king dime.” Maxwell said.
Maxwell has previously made strong statements against Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan. He has now shared some harsh words about Askew, and it will be interesting to see the reaction.

There’s a conspiracy theory for just about everything, including bizarre ones relating to the highly publicized relationship between Grammy Award-winning singer Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
The three-time Super Bowl champion has been in a relationship with Taylor Swift for over a year. Their rumored romance was confirmed when Swift attended the Chiefs’ Week 3, 2023 home game against the Chicago Bears at Arrowhead Stadium.
Kelce’s romance with Swfit has been a giant win for the Chiefs and the NFL, too. She has brought plenty more attention to the NFL and contributed to the Chiefs’ skyrocketing popularity worldwide.
Naturally, conspiracy theorists believe the Travis Kelce-Taylor Swift romance is simply a marketing ploy to help the Chiefs and the league. But Chiefs president Mark Donovan finally addressed the ridiculous rumor during an appearance on NBC’s “Squawk Box” program:
“I’d love to say that it was a marketing strategy, but it is an authentic relationship. And we’re happy to have it, and it’s been nothing but good for us.
I think the best thing I can say about the whole relationship and the impact it’s had on us is, Taylor Swift is an authentic member of the Kansas City Chiefs kingdom. She’s an authentic fan and that matters to our fans and our fan base and to matters to us and we try to respect that.”
