“My kids are everything to me. A lot of people think I’m guarded and overbearing, and if they read my book, they will see why. I wasn’t protected, so I protect. In fact, why some people might think I’m a momma bear, it’s because they’re simply all I got.” - Gina Tucker on her kids, Terry Rozier, Tre’Dasia and J’Maine

This past #NBAAllStar in their hometown of Youngstown (outside of Cleveland), @rozier, @mommag_310, Tre’Dasia (who battles through cerebral palsy) and the family refurbished the Charlotte Hornets star’s youth rec center through their 12 Blessings foundation. Gina also released her book, saying, “@theblaqprint is my story. Telling this story was very difficult at times, but I feel it will help people with similar backgrounds to see and receive a similar perspective, and how that rock bottom isn’t rock bottom. My heart in book form.”
