5 Reasons We Worship The Ground Brandi Maxiell Walks On

Brandi Maxiell spent her first season of Basketball Wives LA keeping her cool until a fight with Sundy Carter erupted into a blowout that made it be known she's no pushover. This season she's going toe-to-toe with Shaunie O'Neal and we are chewing our fingernails in anticipation.

The wife of Jason Maxiell is smart, loyal, and honest which make her the perfect candidate to be our new best friend. We love this fierce kween who goes hard for her friends and harder for her family.

Let us count the ways.

She's a survivor.

"I love you guys for all the support you have given me. It took me a long time to muster up the strength to even talk about my situation publicly. I want to apologize for the comments made on tonight's show. For anyone out there whose lives have been affected by this horrible disease, I'm sorry. I'm forever grateful for my miracle baby, I'm grateful for the breath that I have inside of me. I thank God everyday. I will continue to spread awareness and the importance of getting checked, because I would never want you to go through what I have to endure daily with checkups and struggles to have a child. My husband and my son are the reasons I have the motivation to keep pushing. Without them I'm nothing."

Her son, Jason Jr AKA Pooh, is absolutely adorable.

I mean.

Just all the feelings with these two.

Her eyebrows are always on fleek.

You bettah work, motha.

Twirl!

She's not afraid to post an embarrassing throwback photo of herself.

LOL.

hahahahahahaha

She is fiercely loyal to her bestie Malaysia Pargo

Thing 1 and Thing 2 take no prisoners.

We love these squirrel friends.

Basketball Wive LA returns this summer!
