Luka Doncic's ex-fiancée is dropping her court case over child support for their two children, TMZ Sports has learned.

In court docs Anamaria Goltes submitted Monday that were obtained by TMZ, she requested a Los Angeles judge dismiss her request without prejudice, reasoning ... "I am withdrawing my Petition for Child Support with the specific intention of resolving this matter amicably and by a mutual agreement which is in the best interests of our children."

Anamarie's request to dismiss was rejected by the court, due to the paperwork missing Luka's signature.

As TMZ first reported, the NBA star moved to dismiss the case -- arguing that her petition for child support and attorneys' fees had no legal grounds because it was filed in California ... when the kids live in Slovenia.

Chris Bosh is diving deeper into the medical scare he experienced back in January ... revealing he suffered another pulmonary embolism -- and he almost died from it.

The Hall of Famer was asked about his health issues in an interview with Hoops Hype ... and he explained just how serious the matter was.

"I almost dropped dead pretty much and came back to life. I'm not joking," Bosh said ... adding he was hospitalized for a week after he passed out in his bathroom.

LeBron James bypassed a reunion with his hometown team for a new opportunity with the 76ers ... so how should Cavaliers fans feel about the rejection?? Ex-NBA star and Cleveland native Charles Oakley says they should GET OVER IT!!

TMZ Sports caught up with Oak at the 17th Annual Amazon Kids Back-to-School Fashion Show in NYC on Thursday ... and asked him all about the 41-year-old King's latest decision to join a fourth franchise.

The Knicks great shut down any criticism about James heading to the City of Brotherly Love in pursuit of more rings ... saying what he's doing this late in his career should be admired -- and he's still a role model to young kids.

Former NBA player MarJon Beauchamp was briefly detained -- then quickly released by police -- after trying to break up a fight between friends ... but, before they let him go, all those around him were in for a treat as he flashed his abs.

See for yourself -- the former Philadelphia 76ers hooper had his body on full display just before 3 AM in Seattle, Washington, while police spoke to him about the incident.

You can see he appeared to be entertaining the police ... even cracking a smile at one point before being let go without incident.

NBA superstar Paul Pierce revealed his huge monthly income as part of his battle with his ex, Princess Santiago.

Tari Eason and his designer clothing can rest easy ... because the ex he claims destroyed all his stuff isn't legally allowed to go anywhere near him -- including his NBA games.

The Houston Rockets star's request for a temporary restraining order against his former flame Marilyn Maritza Melo Rodriguez was granted by a judge Thursday ... and she's been barred from going near Tari, his home, his work, his vehicle, or NBA facilities where the baller is playing or practicing.

A hearing -- at which a judge will decide whether the TRO should be extended into a long-term restraining order -- has been set for August 20.

Ex-NBA star Paul Pierce is fighting his ex Princess Santiago's plea for a massive monthly child support check -- claiming his income is about to drop drastically this year, TMZ has learned. 

Paul filed court docs opposing his ex's request for $30K per month in child support, plus another $100K for legal fees in the case. 

In his filing, Paul points out he hasn't played in the NBA since 2017 … and does not earn like he used to. His career earnings were over $200 million.

7/31, 7:51 AM PT -- A source close to Marilyn tells TMZ ... she disputes those portrayals and contends they are false, misleading, and intended to damage her reputation while diverting attention from her allegations of harassment and emotional distress. She maintains that these publications do not accurately reflect the events as she experienced them.

Tari claims one of Marilyn's friends called him to "tell me that she would 'break both of my legs' and 'kill me'" ... alleged threats he said made him fear for his life.

LeBron James will be getting some royal treatment from a couple of iconic Philly spots ... with a pair of cheesesteak pads promising to roll out the cheese whiz-colored carpet for King James ... now that he's joining the city's NBA team.

Over at the iconic Pat’s King of Steaks, they're temporarily changing up how their customers order their fan-beloved Whiz Wit to reflect the new king in town, naming it "The King’s Way." The OG Whiz Wit will keep its classic ingredients: cheese Whiz with onions on juicy steak ... so no worries, there.

Frank Olivieri, third-generation owner of Pat's tells TMZ... “Everyone knows there’s only one way to order the classic, and now there’s a new way to say it. When you come to the window and ask for The King’s Way, we’ll know exactly what you mean.”

Meanwhile, Geno's Steaks has promised a meal fit for King James in the establishment's coveted VIP booth ... as well as a lesson with Geno himself on how to grill up some of the finest cheesesteaks the City of Brotherly Love has to offer.

President Geno Vento tells TMZ... "Our VIP booth – the hardest seat in Philadelphia to get – already has LeBron's name on it. Whenever he's ready, we'll welcome him with a cheesesteak, hand him the spatula, and even let him spend some time behind the grill for a little cheesesteak 101 with me personally. Every Philadelphia legend has a story at Geno's, and we'd love for LeBron's to begin here."

Now that LeBron James is heading to Philly, should Bronny follow his pops?? Devean George tells TMZ Sports he's against the idea ... 'cause now's the time to see what the young hooper can do on his own.

We caught up with the three-peat Lakers alum this week -- prior to the King's shocking 76ers announcement -- and asked about the Bronny situation with No. 23 no longer on the squad.

He said if the Lakers really feel like Bronny is an asset, they should prove it by putting him out on the court.
