Brent Barry, who was a member of the Chicago Bulls in the 1998-99 season (the year after Michael Jordan left, the strike-abbreviated year in which the Bulls’ 13-37 record was third-worst in the NBA), has been named by the TMZ showbiz website as the teammate of the San Antonio Spurs’ Tony Parker whose wife was allegedly having an affair with Parker; revelations of hundreds of text messages between Barry’s wife Erin and Parker were reportedly the cause of Eva Longoria filing for divorce from Parker today.
Barry, now retired from the NBA, and Parker were teammates on the Spurs from 2004-2008. According to TMZ, Barry’s wife has also filed for divorce.
