ANALYSIS: It's hard not to be happy for Holmes knowing what was at stake for him. His ex-wife's allegations not only could have potentially cost him his son but his playing career too knowing how serious child abuse allegations are. By winning the custody battle in two states, Holmes won't have the abuser label potentially getting in the way of playing professional basketball. For now at least.
