Erik Spoelstra had a hot date to a recent charity event, who happens to be a former dancer for the team he coaches. Although the fresh-faced Filipino-American Spoelstra is among the youngest at his position in the league, the damsel draped on his arm is the inverse of his age. Nikki Sapp isn't a sapling, but there are about as many rings on her tree trunk as Spoelstra has on his fingers. However, there's no reason to dance around the subject, since Sapp stopped shimmying before Spoelstra took over in 2008.
Sapp's website lists her current occupation as "Art Gallerista Extraordinaire," which might explain why the secretive Spoelstra was drawn to her, although details remain sketchy. We don't know if Spoelstra cares about the work of Basquiat as much as he does the work of Battier*, but we can't brush off that sweetheart Sapp might be Spoelstra's source of inspiration in supervising Heat's superb 20-game winning streak. Miami's needs to string together four more victories to equal Sapp's age. We'd Bank(sy) on the Heat that exceeding that number.
*do champs have time for Duchamp?
