"Baseball was just too slow for me. And then football, I hated getting tackled. I would just run all over the field … Basketball is just something I was always in love with. Couldn’t get bored with basketball.”
On January 3rd, 2020, Austin McBroom's then-girlfriend Catherine Paiz announced the couple had tied the knot years ago in a privately held ceremony. Posting a video of it on January 18th, the two were seen talking about their secret wedding. While clarifying the situation to his internet community, McBroom said:
"It was a special moment for us for so many reasons. And we didn’t feel the need to have to go to Vegas or to have a wedding that day because the way we do things, the way I like to do things is very big and we weren’t necessarily ready to have a massive wedding.”
