Andrea’s death left the teenager unable to take care of himself.

According to TMZ, there was a court hearing on Wednesday that gave the basketball player temporary guardianship.

There is a hearing scheduled for November that will determine if the NBA star will obtain permanent guardianship.

Although Tristan didn’t attend the hearing, his attorney spoke on his behalf while attending via Zoom.

Now, with Tristan moving to a different state, fans have wondered whether the sports star might get back to his old tricks.

It’s not yet known if Tristan will take his brother to Ohio while he fulfills his contract.
