VH1's Basketball Wives has returned with a bang. The reality show explores the everyday lives of women who have been romantically linked with famous basketball players as they navigate different friendships and relationships. The season premiere aired on the television network on Monday, May 16, 2022 at 8.00 pm ET.
The Basketball Wives season began with some tense moments. Viewers witnessed that Brandi and Malaysia, who previously used to be best friends, do not speak to each other anymore. While the cast is still figuring out what exactly happened, fans are hoping for the best. One fan tweeted:
The reality show was renewed for a tenth season on April 18, 2022 following the tremendous success of the previous season. The installment saw the return of veteran cast members Jackie, Malaysia, and Jennifer, along with Brandi, Angel, Duffey, Brooke, and Brittish.

What to expect from Season 10 of Basketball Wives?
The tenth season of Basketball Wives has surely amped up the drama with its premiere, and it is only going to get more intense from now on. Since its debut in 2010, the show has followed the lives of wives, ex-wives, and girlfriends of professional basketball players as they indulge in personal and professional commitments.
The official synopsis of the show reads:
"The MVPs are reuniting for an epic comeback complete with new business ventures, growing families, relationship woes, and old scores to settle."
This season will see the stars embarking on successful professional journeys. Jackie Christie will be seen delving deep into her career with her podcast, film production, and acting while also celebrating her 26th anniversary with Doug.
Malaysia Pargo will have to deal with a family emergency that forces her and her three children (whom she shares with ex-husband Jannero Pargo) to move to a big city, Los Angeles. In a recent promo, she revealed that she had changed her attitude because of the show, and she believes that it has been a catalyst for her growth.
Jennifer Williams is looking for love with Jelani but is skeptical as the past comes back to haunt her. This leads her to decide that she might need more time before she can take things to the next level.
The wife of NBA power forward Jason Maxiell, Brandi, is back on Season 10 of Basketball Wives. She decides to begin a food-truck business, but "a potential health scare threatens to disrupt her happiness." The star was diagnosed with ovarian cancer when she was 24-years-old but was declared cancer-free in 2008 after a round of treatment.
Basketball Wives is produced by Truly Original and Shed Media for VH1. The executive producers include Shaunie O’Neal, Steven Weinstock, Glenda Hersh, Lauren Eskelin, Lorraine Haughton-Lawson, Julie “Bob” Lombardi, Lyndee Brown, Markus Burns, Vinnie Kaufmann, James Davis, Jennifer Aguirre, and Paula Aranda.
