Lou Williams has been known for having two girlfriends, and they seem to be cool with each other. The Atlanta Hawks isn't only a player on the court, but outside, as he's shown during his career. 

The veteran player starred in incredible stories, like when he convinced a gunman not to rob him and took him to McDonald's. Still, having two girlfriends stands out the most above anything else he could say about his life. 

While some people might think this is just Williams being a dog, the player thinks differently. He has made it very clear that he's with the mother of his sons, not two random ladies he's messing with. 

Talking with Bleacher Report's Taylor Rooks, Lou Will defended his two girls from all the bad things the media tried to say about them in the past. 

“People even thought they were sisters, I was like, 'That's ridiculous.' I didn't like the part where I couldn't control what was being said and how they were viewed. Both of those women are mothers of my children, not just some random girls I'm running around with…”

It's good that the former Lakers, Clippers player demands respect for his wives. Not many people are indeed used to seeing this happening without the people involved creating some sort of drama, but things are different for Williams.

One of these ladies starred in a big moment in the bubble when she was spotted dancing during a Clippers game. She earned a lot of attention after that, but people quickly found out she was with Lou. 

Williams has become one of the best sixth men in NBA history and has won both on the court and in life. He has offered advice to men in the same position as him and it's just hilarious. Yet, he takes his relationships very seriously and won't let anybody disrespect the women in his life.
