Hooped Up

His airness finally has a heiress and yes, I’ve been waiting to say that all day. Over the weekend while you were not getting free stuff from Nike. Michael Jordan got married to his girlfriend of five years Yvette Prieto in Palm Beach, Florida.

Around 300 to 500 guests were in attendance for MJ’s big day at Bethesda-by-the-Sea Episcopal Churchwhich including celebrities / players such as Tiger Woods, Spike Lee, Scottie Pippen and Patrick Ewing.

While a whooping 2,000 guests attended the reception in a 40,000 square foot tent. Congratulations young lovers.

One ring down and one more to go. A season after LeBron James earned his first championship ring, he’ll receive another one in September when he and longtime fiancee Savannah Brinson finally get married in San Diego.

Recently the couple sent out the “Save the Weekend” invitations for Sept. 13-15, 2013 you see above as per TMZ.com that includes an illustration of their family riding on an airplane. If the engagement ring James purchased his soon-to-be wife rumoured at an estimated cost of $250,000 is any indication of what kind of a wedding this is gonna be, this thing is gonna be spectacular.

The WAGs are winning today! First La La Vasquez proved her cleverness via Twitter and now Vanessa Bryant announced her reconciliation with Kobe Bryant via Instagram. Sometimes it doesn’t pay to be like Mike. Congratulations reconciled lovers!

Who would have thought Honey Nut Cheerios would be at the center of a potential fight, status of a marriage, newspaper front page and one game suspension. All without adding milk! Well it was and after a few days when the news got soggy, Carmelo Anthony’s wife La La Vasquez chimed in on cereal drama created by Kevin Garnett via Twitter. It was worth the wait.

Not for nothing,but we ALL deserve a check or some free cereal 4all the publicity we’ve given Honey Nut Cheerios! LOL #cantbelieveeverything

Game. Set. Match. Buy the lady breakfast. Based on this clever and witty response, La La also maintains her four year stranglehold atop my personal WAG rankings list. Well played Mrs. Melo. Well played indeed.

This basketball season has been a rough one for Amare Stoudemire, but off the court things are great. In the summer he proposed to his longtime girlfriend in Paris, then he got married on 12/12/12 and now he and wife Alexis will be expecting a new edition to their family.

“We’re both huge on having a nice size family. It was something we’ve been talking about for a while. It happened naturally and at the right time so it all worked out. It was just perfect timing,” adds Alexis, 29, who says she’s had some morning sickness but overall, “can’t complain!”

Somethings in life are just bigger than basketball. Congratulations to the Stoudemire’s!

Whatever Daniel Gibson bought his wife Keyshia Cole for Christmas, I’m sure it never topped the tattoo he got of her face on his arm a month previous.

If they break up, it’s gonna be painful.

It hasn’t been the ideal prolonged offseason for Derrick Rose (@drose) who has been rehabbing from a torn ACL, but with the extra time on his hands.  D.Rose can now spend some quality time with his new born son “PJ” who he introduced to the world via Twitter. Rose has been very quiet about his personal life, but his longtime girlfriend Mieka Reese, is the mother of his child. Congratulations D.Rose!
