What makes championship basketball players keep motivated to do their best each season? It just might be the women behind them that stroke their egos and take good care of their men while keeping the home fires burning. Even the players who are not married seem to have some sort of romantic entanglement to keep them constantly in an emotional turmoil. Watch for the action to be even more intense at home than it is on the courts. Women fight, even to the point of getting physical! They compete in various ways, always striving to one-up the competition and that's just the basketball wives, not the players themselves. Among the women of basketball are: Jackie Christie is married to Doug Christie (LA Clippers). This romantic duo celebrate their wedding every anniversary. Gloria Govan and Matt Barnes (LA Lakers) are engaged and first met when Gloria was only 12 years old. Imani Showalter was engaged to Stephen Jackson (Golden State Warriors) and a mother of three children with Jackson. Kimsha Artest, partner and wife to Ron Artest (LA Lakers) came from New York City and thinks she's a bit better than the rest of the wives. Let the amusing antics of the Basketball Wives of LA keep you entertained weekly.
