Although Detroit Pistons star Blake Griffin makes roughly $35 million a year, he has poured cold water on claims he\u2019s shelling out $258,000 per month in child support. Sports blog Sportscasting.com recently ran down how the news of the disputed child support payments spread.RadarOnline reported in 2018 that Griffin was ordered by a judge in Los Angeles to pay child support to Brynn Cameron, his ex-fiancee. The celebrity gossip blog said Griffin and Cameron had two small children when they decided not to marry and instead go their separate ways, reportedly because Griffin had started dating celebrity influencer, Kendall Jenner.RadarOnline said Griffin and Cameron were awarded joint physical and legal custody of the kids, who live in California. The blog reported that Griffin was ordered to pay $258,000 per month in child support, which would be more than $3 million per year.As Sportscasting.com points out, however, Griffin and Cameron have refuted the report.\u201cThe recent reports of the financial details of the child support agreement between Blake Griffin and Brynn Cameron are inaccurate,\u201d representatives for the former couple said in a statement. \u201cBoth sides have settled amicably and are moving forward with co-parenting their two children. Due to the confidential nature of the agreement, no further details will be released.\u201dHow Child Support is Calculated in MichiganChild support is generally designed to ensure that kids\u2019 basic needs are met by their parents.In Michigan.\u00a0Child support payments\u00a0are set based on a formula that accounts for the child\u2019s need and the parents\u2019 ability to pay.
