List of episodes

The second season of the reality television series Basketball Wives aired on VH1 from December 12, 2010 until March 14, 2011.[1] The show was primarily filmed in Miami, Florida. It was executively produced by Nick Emmerson, Alex Demyanenko, Shaunie O'Neal, Jill Holmes, Tom Huffman, and Sean Rankine.

The show chronicles the lives of a group of women who are the wives and girlfriends, or have been romantically linked to, professional basketball players in the National Basketball Association, though the title of the series does not make this differentiation, solely referring to the women as "wives".
