All four of Laura Govan's children are regarded as high-level prospects. Her eldest child, Izela, is a freshman at Louisville, while second child, Alijah, is a five-star prospect from Chatsworth High School (California) and signed with USC. Alijah is still recovering after his vehicular crash in LA on April 24, as his Tesla Cybertruck burnt and he was placed in a medically-induced coma.

Meanwhile, Hamiley is a standout high school freshman at Notre Dame (Sherman Oaks) and also plays for her mom's AAU team, Why Not Premier. Her youngest, Aloni, is already garnering attention from scouts even though he is still in middle school. He plays for the Adidas 3SSB Jr. team Compton Magic.

Govan, who also used to be a high school basketball star, gained prominence after appearing on the reality show "Basketball Wives of LA." While she shares four children with Arenas, the two broke up and had several contentious court cases.

They often slammed each other during media appearances and on social media. However, they often put their differences aside for their kids, and also stood united after Alijah's near-fatal crash.

How is Laura Govan doing as coach of an AAU team?
