Iman Shumpert is a daddy now, and he can thank his own steady hands for helping bring his daughter into the world. His fiancée, musician Teyana Taylor, gave birth to their child Wednesday morning in their bathroom, with Shumpert helping with the delivery.
According to Taylor's Instagram account, the delivery may have come on quickly -- she says she didn't know she was in labor until she could feel the baby's head.
Apparently Shumpert tied off the umbilical cord with a cord from a pair of headphones, and then the couple waited for an ambulance to arrive at the house. The baby, nicknamed Junie, was born about three weeks ahead of her due date.
"Our family is complete. Her blueprint will be unmatched," Taylor wrote. "Welcome Iman Tayla Shumpert Jr. Mommy carried you. Daddy delivered you."
Shumpert is currently sidelined for the Cavs due to a right groin strain. Between that and his new arrival, it's unclear when he will return to the court.
