Kobe Bryant Divorce: Where Kobe And Vanessa Stack Up Against Other Famous NBA Couples

It's so easy to get caught up in seeing our favorite NBA stars fly in private jets that we need to be reminded just what they're flying home to. 

WAGs, short for Wives and Girlfriends, are the game after the game that NBA players brag about. For some, talk about someone else's significant other can cause a fight to erupt as in the case of Carmelo Anthony and Kevin Garnett. Who you're seeing is also a way to keep your name in the news, by an ever savvy NBA player. 

Judge them, rate them, or just envy them, just don't hate the player. 

Dirk Nowitzki settled down with the pretty Jessica Olsson. The two are expecting their first child. He's come full circle since he ended it with former fiance Cristal Taylor. The 38-year-old Taylor got five years in prison for violating probation over a forgery and theft cases. Even with the Dallas Mavericks losing these days, Nowitzki has a lot to be happy about when he's not shooting hoops. 

Kyrie Irving may be suffering an injury on one of the worse teams in the league, but he hasn't let the Cavs hurt his game. Kyrie's girlfriend is Brazilian model Natalia Garibotto. She currently lives in Florida. Kyrie may be the next Cav to take his talents to South Beach. 

Kobe Bryant may have suffered a loss on the court last night, but at least he'll have a hot wife to get him healed in time to help the Lakers make the playoffs. It's times when you're down that you're glad you reconciled, right, Mamba?

Every male NBA fan winced when Blake Griffin got punched in the yambag earlier this month, but probably no one more than his girlfriend Daniella Grace. Of course, Blake not being able to do off the court work with her was probably another reason he told his younger self to wear a cup in the Kia commercials. 

Dwayne Wade may be Lebron's sidekick with the Heat, but when it comes to the hottest girlfriend on the team, even King James would likely vote him MVP. Wade and "Cradle 2 The Grave" actress Gabrielle Union have been together since 2010. The Heat are on a 20-game win streak, but D'Wade is always a winner with a woman like this to go home to.
