Brooklyn Nets guard Joe Johnson might have a $126-million contract tied to his name, but that doesn’t mean his alleged baby mama can’t pony up some of her own cash for the kid, this according to legal docs.  Read more after the jump.
The All-Star guard filed paternity paperwork earlier this week in Georgia to legally establish himself as the father of his alleged 5-year old son, whose mother is named Shannon Beckton.
In the docs, Johnson says he still wants to test for DNA (just in case) … but if he is the father, he is asking the judge for joint physical and legal custody, for his son to be able to inherit from him, and for his son to take on his last name.
Not only that — Johnson says Beckton should be held responsible for some of the financial support of the child as well … so the burden doesn’t rest solely on his multi-million dollar shoulders.
A judge has yet to rule.
