‘Basketball Wives’ Recap: Malaysia Throws the Table + Evelyn Confronts Jennifer

Evelyn ambushes Shaunie with Jennifer.

The season finale begins with the ladies still in Amsterdam. Kristen met with Evelyn to learn Jennifer’s in town. Jennifer and Kristen figure out how to bring Jennifer with the ladies. 

They meet with Jennifer out near a river-facing restaurant for wine. It appears Evelyn’s going to use this setting for the sit-down with Shaunie. 

Meanwhile, Malaysia and Shaunie are walking, sight-seeing with the rest of the girls. They are struggling to walk in heels over the cobblestone streets. 

Shaunie gets a text from Kristen inviting them all for drinks. Unbeknownst to Shaunie, Jennifer’s there with Evelyn and Kristen for drinks. When they arrive, they are all surprised.

“Oh my G**!” – Jackie

“What the f*** is going on here?” – Malaysia

“Evelyn betrayed me.” – Shaunie

Jennifer gets angry because Shaunie turns her back to her. Malaysia feels some type of way about Kristen not letting anyone know Jennifer was there. 

Jackie tries to lighten the mood with shots but that doesn’t work. Evelyn breaks the silence, letting it be known that she wants Jennifer to tell her side of the story with Tami not being there. 

Jennifer denies Malaysia claims.

Malaysia’s angry with Jennifer, reminding her about how she felt used by Jennifer to stir the pot with the rumor. Jennifer’s still adamant Tami started it all, ignoring the fact she told Malaysia via text to tell Shaunie about the rumor. 

“Girl, you are a con-artist. Now I know you are a manipulative b****.” – Malaysia

Jennifer’s still lying, according to Malaysia, and Kristen knows Malaysia’s getting furious. 

“If Jennifer knows what good for her, she won’t say nothing.” – Malaysia

Suddenly, Malaysia reveals Jennifer’s been saying some pretty foul things behind her back. Jennifer says she and Evelyn agreed they’d move forward. 

But Evelyn says she was blindsided by the rumor. 

In her interview, Malaysia says Jennifer’s been saying more things about Evelyn. She’s angry, and feels baited by Jennifer apparently denying telling her about apparent rumors surrounding Evelyn’s daughter Shaniece. 

“Oh my [bleep] God.” – Evelyn

Jennifer’s sweating when Malaysia pulls Evelyn aside to talk about the rumor surrounding Shaniece being a “build-a-w****” (what Jackie said), and she would “sleep with anyone in Miami” since she was 16.

“I’m shocked. I want to punch Jennifer in the [bleep] face.” – Evelyn

A table gets thrown.

An angry and shaken Evelyn asked Jennifer in front of everyone about the rumor about Shaniece in front of everyone, and Jennifer says no. Malaysia unleashes when Jennifer denies this, saying she loves her.

A shouting match ensues and Malaysia loses it.

“You’re a [bleep] hater b****!” – Malaysia

“F*** you!” – Jennifer

The girls try to hold Malaysia back, but a table actually gets thrown. That table didn’t connect with anyone luckily and for some reason, Jennifer gets brave.

“Jennifer, you’re not about to fight Malaysia. And if you were, I want a third row seat, because you would get your a** beat.” – Shaunie

After Kristen and Jackie get Malaysia pulled away, Shaunie and Jennifer in front of Evelyn corroborate what Malaysia said. Shaunie says Jennifer has said things about Shaniece being promiscuous.

Meanwhile, Kristen’s doing everything she can to calm Malaysia down. But Malaysia still wants to hurt Jennifer for everything she’s done and said up to this point. In fact, she calls out Jennifer, saying she’s jealous and envious of Evelyn. 

“She’s a wack a** follower. She wants to be Evelyn and will trample over anyone to do that.” – Malaysia

Shaunie corroborates everything Malaysia said about Jennifer.

As this continues, Evelyn’s anger grows, leading to tears and the removal of earrings. Evelyn cries out to Jennifer, pleading to know if she said something bad about her parenting. 

Shaunie wants Jennifer to tell Evelyn what she said about Evelyn’s daughter. However, Jennifer stands firm in her denial of everything, so Shaunie tells it all. Shaunie tells Evelyn that Jennifer revealed that Shaniece was “writing checks and paying bills,” because Evelyn was never around. 

When Shaunie walked away, Evelyn asked her if she said this, and Jenifer denied it still. In her mind, Evelyn’s done with her and is doing everything not to assault Jennifer again.

“I have nothing else to say to her. I want to punch her in the face, and she deserves it.” – Evelyn

She revealed that after this incident, she and Jennifer are “officially” done.

To even everyone out, relaxing them, she offers the ladies two strains of marijuana to smoke. They all start laughing as Jackie chokes. 

The next day, Shaunie FaceTime’s Tami, who’s in Cabo. Tami posted a henna tattoo of Reggie’s name on her ring finger, and Shaunie thought she was getting married. 

Shaunie then recapped how Malaysia threw a table at Jennifer during their sit-down. Tami also hears about the rumors Jennifer said about Shaniece, and how Jennifer swore on everything she was lying

Tami said she’s glad she didn’t make it on the trip. 

Jennifer loses her only remaining friend Kristen.

Meanwhile, Jennifer’s only friend Kristen meets up with her. Kristen isn’t sure at this point to continue their friendship, but they talk. Jenifer says she’s shocked at everything that happened. 

“I feel like I was ganged up on.” – Jennifer

She also says Malaysia acted like the “ghetto b**** Compton, and Shaunie was a “lying a** b****.” 

Kristen says she knew Malaysia for a really long time and that she believes her.

“At some point [Jennifer], you have to take responsibility.” – Kristen

Despite this realness, Jennifer’s still denying everything. At this point, Kristen’s done too. 

“I don’t think there’s any coming back from this one.” – Kristen
