The NBA is home to the most elite basketball talent globally, and these athletes often find themselves paired with equally remarkable partners. The wives and girlfriends of NBA players are not only stunning but also accomplished in their own right, often thriving in various fields such as modeling, entrepreneurship, and philanthropy. These incredible women stand by their partners, sharing the spotlight and contributing to the allure and glamour surrounding the league.

Ayesha and Steph Curry

As much as you'd expect NBA stars to go for movie stars or models, Steph Curry is yet another NBA star who married his high school sweetheart, Ayesha. Even though she was born in Canada, she later moved with her family to North Carolina, which happened to be Curry's home state.

They met at a youth group function before reconnecting during his college playing years. They married in 2011, and since then Ayesha has gone on to host her own cooking show on Food Network.

Kayla and Isaiah Thomas

Isaiah Thomas is an NBA point guard and two-time NBA All-Star despite the fact that he's only 5'9" tall. With that being said, his achievements are all the more impressive since most players tower over him.

Maybe, like several other couples on this list, the continued success of the Phoenix Suns player is due to the fact that he and his wife, Kayla, were together for years before getting married. They met and started dating in high school, and by the time they tied the knot, they already had two kids.

Savannah Brinson James and LeBron James

As much as LeBron James is famous, he's been able to keep his personal relationship with Savannah Brinson as far from the public eye as he could hope for. Apparently, when they first met, she refused to give him his number!

Instead, she chose to take his number, and they finally went on their first date to Outback Steakhouse. This was back in high school, and the couple has remained strong ever since, tying the knot in 2013 and welcoming three kids throughout the years.

Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade

You'll recognize Gabrielle Union from teen movies, starting with 1999's She's All That and 10 Things I Hate About You. Later, in 2000, she had a breakthrough role as Isis in Bring it On and hasn't looked back since.

In 2009, she started dating Dwyane Wade of the Miami Heat - who's nine years her junior - before marrying him in 2014. Despite probably not needing to work after two decades in Hollywood and being married to one of the NBA's top players, she's still active as an actress.
