DeJuan Blair isn't the only NBA player with a past-due bill from a jewelry company right now. According to TMZ, Knicks guard J.R. Smith is also in debt to a company called Lemmerman's that provided him with a variety of bling—including the Black Jesus pendant that you see in the thumbs gallery above—that cost upwards of $25,000. But he never paid for any of it, so Lemmerman's filed a $48,000 lawsuit against him recently and won in court when Swish never responded to the suit. As a result, he's now been ordered to pay the company what he owes immediately or risk further penalties.

What's with all these ballers failing to pay for their jewels? We know you guys are good for it. So pay up!
