Malaysia Pargo isn’t the only one exiting “Basketball Wives.”

Basketball Wives” fans were critical of the latest season. Malaysia Pargo departed the show well before the season’s end. As we reported, she took issue with Jennifer Williams alleging that her Atlanta home was lost via foreclosure. At the time, Malaysia had been vocal about her co-parenting situation. She alleged that Jannero Pargo wasn’t doing much to help financially with their children. So she was really frustrated. And she decided to put her mental health first. Interestingly enough, Brandi Maxiell said that Malaysia’s choice to go didn’t make sense to her. She said Malaysia should have stayed because the check should have been a bigger priority.

Jackie Christie later said that Malaysia did what was best for her. And she told Carlos King that Malaysia’s mental health took a hit while she filmed the last season. Malaysia being at odds with the majority of the cast certainly didn’t help things either.

Well, it seems as if Brandi’s time on the show has come to an end, too. Weeks after DJ Duffey confirmed she would not be returning for the next season, it looks like Brandi is out as well.

The upcoming season of “Basketball Wives” will feature the return of Evelyn Lozada and notable new faces.

Hours ago, photographer and blogger LA Gossip shared exclusive photos of the “Basketball Wives” cast filming the new season. Evelyn Lozada, Brooke Bailey, Jennifer Williams, and Jackie were there. But Brandi, Brittish Williams, and Angel Brinks were not in attendance. And they were seemingly replaced by Brittany Renner, Jac’Eil, and Vanessa Rider.

Brittany Renner has made quite the name for herself due to her past with Drake. She also has a child with NBA player PJ Washington. He plays for the Charlotte Hornets.

Jac’Eil is currently dating WNBA player Natasha Howard. Natasha plays for the Dallas Wings.

Vanessa Rider is the wife of former NBA player Isaiah Rider. Teams he played for include the Atlanta Hawks and Los Angeles Lakers.

Evelyn Lozada’s return to the show comes as she recently confirmed she is engaged. She met her fiancé Lavon Lewis while she filmed “Queens Court.” The plot of the show focused on Evelyn, Tamar Braxton, and Nivea’s search for love following complications in past relationships. Tamar and Evelyn walked away with engagements.

She previously departed the show amid her ongoing legal battle with OG.

  1. I’m so glad Ms. “Above It All” Brandi is out. And Ms. “Cry Me A River” Angel is out. But, Ms. “I’m Super Bad Now” Jennifer is still there. Oh well, we can’t have everything we want in life.The

  2. Bye Brandi. I was not interested nor vested in her story or bullying mean girl behaviors. I’m glad they have fresh faces and Evelyn cane back. Let’s see if Jennifer will have the same behavior

  3. Didn’t care much for the shoe last season due to Jennifer’s antics. Really won’t be watching now that Evelyn’s back.

  4. I don’t like Jennifer.Lets see if she gonna be mean to Evelyn. I’m glad Brandi gone. They better be glad Malaysia not like she used to be cause they some whooped ukw.

  5. Is Jennifer and Evelyn’s friendship back on? I can’t keep up. I thought they were off due to them residing in separate houses on a trip (when OG was on the show). Oh well. I just want my girls Brooke and Evelyn to get along. Jackie….she can go. She’s too old for the amount of nonsense she either creates or is involved in.

  6. Evelyn came back to give Jennifer a SPANKING for trying to act out last season…I am EXCITED Evelyn FINE self is back and the have some woman that have some kind of BASKETBALL connection ABOUT TIME

  7. The show needs to end. Brandi looks miserable all the time. Due to her husband refuses to move to LA with their son she needs the depart to save what is left of her marriage. Duffy seems to be a good DJ she better protect her brand. The show is all the other ladies source of income. Angel Brinks, when was the last time she sold a dress?

  8. NOT glad to see Evelyn! Jennifer can go too!!! Brooke can go!!!! British is a STONE COLD BACK STABBIN
    TROUBLEMAKER. Maybe the new members can bring back life to the show. Seemed like a bunch of bickering bobbleheads!

  9. I’m glad Brandi is leaving she act like that was the Brandi show I was getting sick of her. Angel I liked her but she was very boring and Duffy glad she’s gone so glad we’re getting new people glad Evelyn is coming back.

  10. Ok you no I believe the reason British isn’t back is because she really getting ready to do some hard prison time I can’t believe all the felonies charges thar girl have under her belt

  11. I’m glad that I stopped watching the show a LONG time ago but even more happy now that Shaunie’s boo thang Evelyn is coming back. So not right because she made that racist comment to Cleve and nothing happens and is always fighting people, throwing objects, just being dangerous but that was okay in Shaunie’s eyes but OG was so dangerous…BS…big bad Evelyn met her match and the b-tch had to bow down and pick on OG knowing that Shaunie’s would take her side right or wrong. Just cancel the show…and I totally agree…go get your v-gina checked Brandi is gone!!

  12. I’m glad that Brandi is gone. She really thought she was the star of the show. Like she was running things. She’s a bitter person. She blames everyone for except herself.

  13. To be honest enough to say, they all needs to walk away and stop this messy drama. Let’s stay Classy and Beautiful ladies,find another way to “check the bag!” Let’s stop degrading one another, lift each & cheer for one another!

  14. Look like I couldn’t spell earlier as I was saying I love Jackie. She about the only one that say what she mean and mean what she say…PERIOD!!!!

  15. This foolishness should now be called Basketball EX-wives, girlfriends and side pieces! Only Jackie is married to an EX basketball player (I believe). These women on these “reality” shows are mothers and GRANDmothers and are too old for all this fussin and cussin. Can we have a show that provides uplifting??? I guess ratchet still sells.

  16. I’m glad Brandi is gone. She needs to focus on therapy the way she holds on to grudges. Glad to see Eve back.

  17. It’s crazy that Brandi is saying a check is priority over health when she’s a breast cancer survivor. She’s so full of schitt. Evelyn finally has something to talk about…..her new fiancé. But I’m glad someone is her to put Jennifer BACK in her place. Bless Angel’s heart… she’s finally gotten her BB family and now she’s not going to be on the show. I guess VH1 wanted her boyfriend and Mr. Ball (or somebody smartly said h-ll no!

  18. OMGEEE, IM HAPPY TO HEAR BRANDI NOT RETURNING. I HATE ANGEL WON’T RETURN THOUGH. I’M ELATED THT EVELYN IS RETURNING AND I SOOO WISH JENNIFER WOULD GO AWAY. SHE’S NOT INTERESTING AT ALL. SHE’S SNOODIE AND ENTITLED, AND NEED TO GO BE W THOSE SHE FEELS(WHICH PROBABLY WOULD BE HARD TO FIND SINCE IN HER DELUSION EVERYONE IS BENEATH HER)SHE’S IN GOOD COMPANY WITH. SHE CALLED HERSELF AN “O.G.” AND SAID NOBODY WOULD BE THERE WITHOUT HER. IDK WHT LAND SHE LIVING IN BC THIS SHOW WAS SHAUNIE’S BABY, AND I GUARANTEE THT THE SHOW WOULD BE BETTER WITHOUT HER, ANNND THOSE WHO BEEN ON WOULD BE THERE DESPITE HER ABSENCE. SHE’S A NOBODY AND CONDESCENDING….UGLY!!!!
