Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, a legend on the basketball court, is also a devoted father off it. While his towering presence and iconic skyhook defined an era of NBA basketball, his family life, particularly his five children, often remains more private. Kareem has always emphasized the importance of family, and his children have forged diverse paths, reflecting a wide range of talents and interests away from the hardwood.
Meet the Abdul-Jabbar Offspring
Kareem shares three children with his former wife, Habiba Abdul-Jabbar (Janice Brown). His eldest, daughter Habiba Abdul-Jabbar, born in 1972 (making her around 52), has dipped her toes into the worlds of modeling and acting. Next is his son, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Jr., also known as Skipper, born in 1976 (around 48). Skipper briefly followed in his father's footsteps, playing college basketball at Western Kentucky and even appearing on "Family Feud." The youngest of the three is Amir Abdul-Jabbar, born in 1978 (around 46), who has found success in the real estate industry, showcasing a different kind of court savvy.
Kareem also has two children with Cheryl Pistono. Adam Abdul-Jabbar, born around 1980 (making him roughly 44), has garnered some public attention, including a notable appearance on "Celebrity Family Feud" alongside his father. His youngest daughter, Imani Abdul-Jabbar, born around 1986 (around 38), tends to keep a lower profile, pursuing her own endeavors away from the public spotlight. Kareem takes immense pride in all his children, supporting their individual journeys and cherishing the bonds they share as a family.
