Dennis Rodman claimed Madonna offered him $20 million for a baby in the early '90s.

NEW YORK — Dennis Rodman could have been $20 million richer, thanks to Madonna -- at least, according to him.

Rodman said he stopped the game, flew a private jet to Madonna's home in New York, and she made the offer.

"She asked me that if I got her pregnant she'd pay me $20 million," he said. "That's if the baby was born.", according to TMZ.

According to Rodman, he wasn't the only one who got an offer like that from the pop singer. He claimed a similar arrangement was made with a dancer.

Madonna and Rodman dated in the early '90s when he was playing for the San Antonio Spurs. In his ESPN "30 for 30" documentary "Rodman: For Better or Worse," he briefly touched on their relationship.

Dennis Rodman #10 of the San Antonio Spurs leaves the arena with Madonna after playing an NBA game against the Los Angeles Clippers at The Los Angeles Sports Arena on April 24, 1994 in Los Angeles.

"We had a nice little fling. That came and gone ... We came together in the perfect time," he told USA Today last week. "She was stagnating in her career, and I was coming up. We helped to motivate each other, going in the same direction at that particular time."

The interview, which contains explicit language, can be watched on YouTube.
