If you're watching Trinity Rodman play for the USWNT at the Olympics (as one of the youngest athletes there) or World Cup, you may look at that last name and say, "Hey, that sounds familiar. Is she related to Dennis Rodman, the Hall of Fame basketball star?"

The answer is: yes Dennis Rodman is her father.

She has posted about him on Instagram before, noting that "we don't have the best relationship" after he showed up to an NWSL game that she was playing in (see below).

"I go months if not years without his presence or communication. Being in spotlights has been hard for us," she added. "We don’t have the best relationship, but at the end of the day he’s human I’m human… he’s my dad, and I’m his little girl that will never change."

There's your answer!
