25. Kristen Blake
Wifey of: Steve Blake, Los Angeles Lakers
Steve Blake is subpar at best on the court, so his wife Kristen is probably his biggest triumph in life so far. She's a hottie and actually partnered with her hubby to sponsor a young girl in Rwanda that they even took the time out to visit. You've got a keeper, bro. #dontfuckitup
24. Savannah Brinson
Wifey of: LeBron James, Miami Heat
Despite what Cleveland fans may say, LeBron James actually is loyal. The King has stuck by his high school sweetheart (and soon to be official wifey) Savannah Brinson, the mother of his two children. So, the King finally go this ring and Savannah got hers. We're not mad but the haters probably are.
23. Michelle Udrih
Wifey of: Beno Udrih, Milwaukee Bucks
Not much is known about Michelle Udrih, wife of Milwaukee guard Beno Udrih. What should be noted though, she's hot and Beno easily has outperformed his contract in life.
22. Jessica Olsson
Wifey of: Dirk Nowitzki, Dallas Mavericks
This Kenyan born beauty is married to your favorite German baller Dirk Nowitzki and we'd like to give him an emphatic job well done. Dirk gets even more props for rocking the dashiki. We definitely see one of these lists in his future.
21. Alexandria Lopez
Wifey of: Josh Smith, Atlanta Hawks
The world doesn't know too much about Mid Range Shawty's wifey, but from the evidence we've seen it's conclusive that she's hot. In other news, can we please get this "Mid Range Shawty" moniker to stick?
20. Malaysia Pargo
Wifey of: Jannero Pargo, Washington Wizards
This might be one of those rare occurrences when the WAG is actually more famous than the baller. We all know Malaysia from Basketball Wives L.A. as the only actual wife on the show and as a sexy lady with some class. She's married to Wizard Jannero Pargo and grinds it out weekly with the ratchetness on full display from most of the other girls.
19. Monica
Wifey of: Shannon Brown, Phoenix Suns
R&B singers and basketball players are almost like peas in a pod and Shannon Brown and Monica's relationship turned marriage fits right into that. Gotta love a cougar on the prowl. Where you at, Brandy?!
18. Keyshia Cole Gibson
Wifey of: Daniel Gibson, Cleveland Cavaliers
Not many ladies on this list can boast their own fame as much as R&B songstress Keyshia Cole Gibson, wife of Cleveland Cavalier guard Daniel "Booby" Gibson. She put her career on hold to start a family with the seven-year pro and hasn't seemed to regret it for a second. Booby's got to watch out for the crazy-ass mother-in-law though. Then again, don't we all?
17. Brandi Maxiell
Wifey of: Jason Maxiell, Detroit Pistons
Shout-out to the sixth man! Jason Maxiell got himself All-Star talent with wife Brandi and we bet she's getting as many minutes as she wants! #justgladtobethere
16. Silvia Lopez Castro
Wifey of: Pau Gasol, Los Angeles Lakers
When you're one of the basketball kings of Spain, there are some wonderful perks that come along with it. Pau Gasol shacked up with this former dancer hottie Silvia Lopez Castro a few years back and hasn't let her go since. No wonder he was struggling in 2011 when there were rumors they broke up, he's probably not going to be able to do better.
15. Masha Kirilenko
Wifey Of: Andrei Kirilenko, Minnesota Timberwolves
Masha might be the biggest ride or die NBA wife in the history of the NBA. She's hot, she's a Russian pop singer so she's got her own, and after she married Andrei Kirilenko she was quoted as saying she allows him to sleep with one other woman per year on the road. #jelly
14. Sabina Gadecki
Wifey of: David Lee, Golden State Warriors
This model/actress and former Miss Polonia World is coupled up with Golden State big man David Lee. We couldn't be prouder of you David, you've handled yours off the court, now we're gonna need you to make Golden State relevant again.
13. Tamia Hill
Wifey of: Grant Hill, Los Angeles Clippers
The R&B diva Tamia Hill has been with hubby Grant Hill through tons of ups and downs in both of their lives and careers and still remains a staple on any hottest NBA WAG list.
12. Jennifer Freeman
Wifey of: Earl Watson, Utah Jazz
Yes, that's right. Earl Watson pulled Claire from My Wife and Kids. Hating commence!
11. Gloria Govan
Wifey Of: Matt Barnes, Los Angeles Clippers
From Basketball Wives fame, the world got a glimpse at Matt Barnes' girlfriend Gloria Govan. She's far less ratchet than most of the girls on the shows and a bit hotter. If this relationship survived the Twitter wrath of candyDEEPTHROAT then it can make it through anything.
10. Vanessa Bryant
Wifey of: Kobe Bryant, Los Angeles Lakers
Bitch you wasn't with him shootin in the gym! But she's sexy and that kinda makes up for it. We're glad the Bryants are still together—for now.
9. Meghan Allen
Wifey of: Devin Harris, Atlanta Hawks
This former Playboy hottie is the girlfriend of Atlanta guard and YouTube sensation, Devin Harris. Pinch yourself Devin, enjoy this moment.
8. Adrienne Bosh
Wifey of: Chris Bosh, Miami Heat
Chris Bosh could care less about you calling him Bosh Spice, wanna know why? View the pics above. That's right, the dude who looks like a dinosaur, gives himself champagne facials, and makes a lot of struggle faces bagged one of the baddest NBA WAGs. The NBA, where amazing happens.
7. La La Vasquez Anthony
Wifey of: Carmelo Anthony, New York Knicks
No woman has quite owned the role of basketball wife socialite quite like La La Vasquez-Anthony has over the past couple years. After being with Melo for many years, the two tied the knot in 2010 in a lavish affair and La La has transformed herself from an ordinary MTV VJ to a bonafide VH1 reality show-worthy entertainer.
6. Zuleyka Rivera
Wifey of: J.J. Barea, Minnesota Timberwolves
Win a title? Check. Sign a big deal? Check. Wife up a girl who's incredibly out of your league? Triple check.
5. Amelia Vega
Wifey of: Al Horford, Atlanta Hawks
Al Horford is probably underrated on the court but he still managed to bag former Miss Universe Amelia Vega. No wonder he's "injured" all the time. Do you, homie. Do you.
4. Brandi Garnett
Wifey of: Kevin Garnett, Boston Celtics
We have to think KG's a much different guy off the court for being able to keep his gorgeous wife Brandi happy for the eight years they've been married. No really, we're talking about the lovely lady above dealing with this dude.
3. Elaine Alden
Wifey of: Landry Fields, Toronto Raptors
We didn't think you had this in you Landry, we really didn't didn't think you had this one in you. Plus, she flaunts the WAG title proudly.
2. Gabrielle Union
Wifey of: Dwyane Wade, Miami Heat
D-Wade had a bit of an off year last season but his wife remains near the top of the WAG rankings. Compared to his crazy ass ex-wife, Gabby is the upgrade of decade.
1. Porschla Coleman
Wifey of: Jason Kidd, New York Knicks
When J. Kidd isn't getting DWIs or dropping dimes on the court, he's going home to one in his wife Porschla Coleman. You might remember her as that light skinned bombshell Russel Simmons was courting for a while a couple years back, we know we do.
