Who is Don Nelson’s ex-wife?
Former National Basketball Association coach Don Nelson and his former wife Sharon Nelson divorced in 1989, but there is an issue about that settlement that remains active in 2013.
Sharon Nelson, 74, is a Brookfield resident. Don Nelson is attempting to reduce the amount of money he sends to his ex-wife, according to documents filed in Milwaukee County Circuit Court, because his annual wage has fallen below the threshold set for those payments in the 1989 settlement.
He has made 22 annual installments of $50,000 to his ex-wife since 1989. He was compelled to make such payments to her as long as he was employed and earned more than $350,000 in “personal services revenue.”
