Rajon Rondo allegedly threatened his former partner and the mother of his children with a gun at her house last week. The woman filed for an emergency protective order against Rondo on Friday in Louisville, Kentucky, a copy of which was obtained by ESPN.

NBA spokesman Mike Bass told ESPN's Malika Andrews that the league is aware of what allegedly happened and is "in the process of gathering more information." Messages left by ESPN to Rondo's representatives weren't immediately returned.

She alleged that Rondo and a child were playing video games on Wednesday when she asked the child to separate laundry. Rondo reacted angrily, according to the woman, ripping the game console out of the wall and smashing several items in the house, leaving the boy and another child there upset.

The woman alleges that Rondo said to her "you're dead" before leaving the house, only to return shortly thereafter, this time with a gun and demanding to see one of the children. The woman said she grew scared of the situation, so brought him downstairs, and Rondo pulled him outside, allegedly while still holding the gun, while he yelled at him. He then demanded to see the other child, too, and she also came outside, as Rondo yelled at both of them for being afraid of him, the woman alleged.
