Chicago Bulls legend Dennis Rodman's son DJ Rodman had a night to remember during his team's G League fixture on Saturday. The former USC star almost had a double-double outing against the Sky Hawks and was shown love by his family including his mother and sister Trinity Rodman on Instagram.
GTV Hoops shared an Instagram post about DJ's performance, which Trinity later reshared on her story. The post highlighted how DJ scored three consecutive three-pointers in the final minutes of the game and noted that he shows a work ethic similar to that of his father:
"DJ Rodman WENT OFF for 19 PTS, 9 REB, 3 AST, 3 STL, and 5 3PT today for the @maineceltics. He hit 3 straight 3PT in the final minute including the game-tying shot to force overtime. DJ, the son of @dennisrodman, is a workhorse with a crazy motor and averages more REBOUNDS than he does points! 🔥 @dj_rodman," the caption read.

NWSL star Trinity Rodman reshared the post on her account with a message:
"Yuppppppp," she wrote followed by five heart-eyed emojis.
Dennis Rodman's ex-wife and DJ's mom Michelle Rodman also shared a graphic surrounding DJ's performance. The mother of two shared a screenshot from the Maine Celtics' official X (formerly Twitter) account as she simply posted the image without any caption.
DJ Rodman went undrafted during the 2024 NBA draft and joined the Capital City Go-Go G League team before switching his allegiance to the Maine Celtics. DJ Rodman was on the court for 30 minutes during his team's recent game against the College Park Skyhawks, recording a near-double-double with 19 points and 9 rebounds.
Trinity Rodman opens up on strained relationship with father Dennis Rodman
Trinity Rodman has been vocal about her relationship with her father and opened up about her strained family dynamics during an episode of the "Call Her Daddy" podcast.
Expressing how Dennis Rodman has never been present in her life and how his lifestyle made it difficult to enjoy a healthy dynamic, Trinity gave an insight into her relationship with her father:
"We tried to live with him but he's having parties 24x7, he is bringing random b**ches in. He loves the spotlight," the NWSL star expressed, "I lost hope in ever getting him back, I answer the phone now for my conscience to be like 'he needed to hear my voice' before anything happens.
"That's why I answer the phone not for me. He's not a dad maybe by blood but nothing else."
Trinity has been very candid about her relationship with her father and does not hide details of their differences. However, Rodman has been trying to make amends as he voiced regrets over not being a father during his Hall of Fame acceptance speech before posting a now-deleted apology to his daughter on Instagram.
