NBA veteran Trevor Ariza and wife Bree Anderson Ariza are reportedly headed to splitsville. The couple, who have been married since 2018, have two kids who Bree Anderson wants physical and legal custody of.

TMZ had the scoop on the looming divorce. They reported that the reason for the split was "irreconcilable differences."

The report added that the "date of separation for the two was listed as TBD" in court documents.

Ariza’s wife is allowing him visitation rights and is also seeking financial support from the NBA champion.

“Switchblade” played for the LA Lakers last season but is currently a free agent. He earned $2.6 million last season while playing sparingly alongside LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Russell Westbrook.

Trevor Ariza tied the knot with Bree Anderson during his stint with the Houston Rockets. They were married in Los Angeles and invited an incredible list of guests to the wedding.

James Harden and Chris Paul were two of the superstars who attended the ceremony. Travis Scott and Kylie Jenner also made their presence felt during the event. The rapper even brought life to the wedding by performing “Goosebumps.”


NBA veteran Trevor Ariza has been involved in a legal battle before with former wife Lana Allen

Before Bree Anderson, Trevor Ariza was married to Lana Allen, who accused the NBA player after the divorce of physically abusing their kid. She filed for a restraining order against the 2009 NBA champ due to alleged injuries sustained by their son.

Allen alleged that their kid "feared" the player and that she didn't trust her former husband to take care of their son.

In 2020, the court ultimately confirmed Ariza’s innocence and stated that he was never a threat to the boy.

Bree Anderson has made no such claims against Trevor Ariza regarding their three kids.

Ariza has been playing in the NBA since 2004. His biggest claim to fame was winning the 2009 championship with Kobe Bryant, Pau Gasol and the LA Lakers.
