Tristan Thompson appeared to threaten his alleged baby mama Maralee Nichols to drop her paternity lawsuit against him in exchange for $75,000, claiming she won’t see that much money if he’s ordered to pay child support.

In a text purportedly sent by the Sacramento Kings player to the personal trainer, obtained by Page Six in a legal filing, Thompson urged Nichols to take the money he was offering because she’d get far less under Texas law.

“You know how I feel. My feelings haven’t changed at all. Wont be involved at all. Btw if you think having this baby is gonna make you some money. It’s completely wrong,” the message read.

Thompson allegedly went on to claim that he intends to hang up his NBA sneakers in 2022.

“You are aware that I’m retiring after this season,” the text continued. “So in terms of support it will be whatever is required monthly for someone who’s unemployed. It’s texas so it will be only a couple hundred dollars. So you better off taking this 75k I’m offering cause you won’t get nothing near that with having a kid with a father who’s unemployed.”

Nichols’ attorney argued in the filing that Thompson intentionally filed his complaint in Texas to “save” some money on child support. However, Nichols resides in California and her child, due Dec. 3, will also be born in the Golden State; Texas law would have no jurisdiction on the child support ruling, per the filing.

Thompson, who shares 3-year-old daughter True with ex Khloé Kardashian and 4-year-old son Prince with ex Jordan Craig, purportedly concluded the message by informing Nichols that all she would have “is a baby with a father who has zero involvement with the child and a few hundred dollars of child support a month.”

Nichols’ attorney declined to comment. Thompson’s attorneys haven’t responded to our numerous requests for comment.

As Page Six exclusively reported, Thompson allegedly wanted Nichols to get an abortion when she found out she was pregnant. He also demanded in July that she take a paternity test. As of Nov. 15, she had not taken a test, but in a subsequent filing, he said he would pay child support if the child is his. Another filing notes the genetic testing can only be done once the baby is born.

The baby was allegedly conceived on Thompson’s 30th birthday, when he was still dating Kardashian. Page Six broke the news in July that the former “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” star, 37, and Thompson had broken up again.
