According to a USA Today investigation, his father, also Kareem, was arrested at least 35 times, mostly from drug-related crimes but also domestic violence.

It doesn’t end with Hunt’s father. His mother, Stephanie, was arrested on charges of cocaine possession. His older brother, Clarence, served two years for trespassing. His uncle Rashan was convicted of voluntary manslaughter, and his cousin Gregory is in jail now for what USA Today calls “drug- and gun-related offenses.”
As a kicker, the paper reports: “Four more cousins and another uncle have pleaded guilty to felony offenses, most related to drugs.”
