Tony Parker, Eva Longoria to settle divorce ‘amicably’

WASHINGTON - It seems Tony Parker is committed to settling his divorce with Eva Longoria peacefully.

In filing his own divorce papers Friday in Texas, the star player for the San Antonio Spurs was merely following “standard procedure” in the breakup with Longoria, according to a source.

“This was not meant to escalate things,” People Magazine quoted the source as saying.

“He filed his own papers to protect his rights during the proceeding. … They are still committed to working this out together amicably,” the source added.

Parker is taking a different approach as a player, going all out in three games in four days as his team has jumped out to 10-1 start in the season.

On the same day he filed divorce papers, Parker was the leading scorer with 24 points in a 94-82 victory over the Jazz in Salt Lake City.

“He’s been coping by focusing on work. He has been relying on his teammates for support. Everyone at the Spurs has been so supportive of him,” the source added. (ANI)
