Looks like the Basketball Wives are going to be changing up plays on the court next season.

Reportedly three of the wives –Jennifer Williams, Kesha Nichols and Royce Reed — have been axed from the show, according the TMZ.

Royce’s fighting with the other wives is one of the reasons the show has allegedly cut her as well as her gag order with Orlando Magic player Dwight Howard which she is legally not allowed to talk about on TV.

According to TMZ, Jennifer is getting the boot for her altercation with Nia Crooks and Kesha is just too “boring.”

It will be interesting to see who’s cast to replace them for season 5!

What do you think, HollywoodLifers? Will you be sad to see Jennifer, Kesha and Royce go? Vote and weigh in below.

Jennifer Williams isn’t playing well with the other Basketball Wives stars and got into a fight with Evelyn Lozada‘s assistant, Nia Crooks, when they were shooting the show in Hallandale, Florida Jan. 21, reports TMZ.

Apparently, the women were thinking Jennifer was “too big for her britches” and Nia told her as much. “The two got face-to-face and Nia pushed Williams in the face to get her away. In the police report, Williams described it as being ‘intentional struck by Crooks with an open hand to the left side of her face,’” the story says.

The girls were stopped from coming to blows by police security from the production company.

Whatever happened, we can’t wait to see it on an upcoming episode!

Jennifer Williams exclusively told HollywoodLife.com how she plans to spend the holidays. “My plans for Thanksgiving are to spend some quality time with my family since we have a few days off from filming season 4.”

Jennifer is taking the opportunity this holiday weekend to finally relax! “My schedule has been so crazy lately with filming and growing Lucid, I am looking forward to catching up with my closest family and friends,” Jennifer said.

HollywoodLife.com also learned what Jennifer’s go-to recipe is — and it’s probably not what you would expect! Jennifer admitted, “I haven’t been eating meat lately so I would say my best recipe is actually Patti LaBelle’s macaroni and cheese! It is delicious! I have made it a few times in the past.”

After eating all that turkey and macaroni and cheese, Jennifer is just as concerned as we are about staying fit. Jennifer’s advice for staying in shape after Thanksgiving is to,”indulge but do it in moderation and make sure you hit the gym Friday AM and do an extra 30 minutes of cardio to help burn off that sweet potato pie!”

Basketball Wives star Jennifer Williams is one busy lady. Even though she’s going through a divorce, she’s still keeping her mind on track with a positive outlook. Instead of focusing on the bad, Jennifer is putting all of her energy towards the launch of her Lucid Cosmetics line and filming the upcoming season of her hit VH1 reality show, Basketball Wives.

Jennifer celebrated the launch of Lucid Lipgloss on Nov. 15 in Manhattan’s Upper East Side boutique Big Drop NYC. Cameras were rolling catching the whole shindig for the new season of Basketball Wives.

Jennifer’s costar Suzie Ketcham and friends Kenya Bell and The Real Housewives of Atlanta star NeNe Leakes all stopped by to show their support for Jennifer.

As Basketball Wives goes on a hiatus here are my final thoughts on the reunion show and season 3. This season has been full of ups and downs; it has been very emotional to say the least. Sometimes it is just best to agree to disagree!

That being said, I don’t feel as if Meeka and Tami will ever get along. Meeka can’t keep track of her stories so it’s just best those two keep their distance. I don’t have a major problem with Meeka, but at this point in my adult life, I have my core friends and girls can be a lot of drama as we clearly see! So if I see her again great, if not I wish her well.

Everyone thinks Suzie is a troublemaker, but in actuality she hates drama and just wants everyone to get along. I believe that Suzie learned a valuable lesson during season 2 about getting caught up in drama. She definitely doesn’t want to go through that ordeal again.

As far as Royce goes, I don’t have anything to say about her besides, I think she is very immature and we will probably never be friends. I have no problem with that because we weren’t friends before this show.

I am looking forward to a break before filming season 4 to concentrate on my new business, Lucid Cosmetics. Going through a divorce can be draining so I am happy to be able to go though some of my healing process away from the camera for a bit. Although it has been quite a bumpy road for Eric and me, I wish him nothing but the best.

My hope for season 4 of Basketball Wives is that we can show other parts of all of our lives. The past seasons have been so focused on drama and there is so much more to each of these women. Yes, we have our arguments, which is bound to happen when you put 6 or 7 women together for a few months, but we do so much more than argue. We are businesswomen, mothers, entrepreneurs and have non-profit foundations we support. I would like to thank all of our loyal fans and viewers because without them the show would not be what it is today. We truly love you. I wish all my cast mates the best with all their endeavors and continued success.

Until next season … oxoxoxo

2. Jennifer: I Haven’t Spoken To Eric Since Fight!
3. Jennifer: Evelyn, Shaunie & I Don’t Want To Film With Royce Anymore!

The reunion show is always a great time to recap with my castmates, laugh and sometimes argue. After all this is Basketball Wives so you know we have our fair share of drama!

Let me just get this topic out the way! Royce is irrelevant! I refuse to waste another ounce of breath on her. She just doesn’t get it! Royce is always starting some drama and I am at a point in my life where I am trying to get rid of drama and any negative influences. It boils down to myself, Shaunie and Evelyn not wanting to film with her because she is so full of drama. Other than her “movie role” with Eric, she doesn’t have much of a story line. I am certain she doesn’t want to talk about her new boyfriend that just had a baby with another woman while we were filming and we all know Dwight Howard has a gag order on her! Ok moving on…

As far as Meeka goes she just needs to shut the hell up! Her mouth is what got her in trouble in the first place. She claims she doesn’t want to be in “the circle” but isn’t that the very reason she came on the show? She should start thinking and choose her words more carefully so she can stop putting her foot in her mouth!

The incident with Eric is very unfortunate, however it was just a firm confirmation that I am moving in the right direction. Everyone wants to say, “Well I would have done this or what took you so long?” No one can really say what he or she is going to do and/or react until they are in your shoes. I feel Eric ended our relationship with a coward move. Yes, yes I did throw a drink first. I was frustrated our discussion didn’t resolve anything about our impending divorce but I never hit him with the drink nor did I intend to hit him with the drink. The manner and forcefulness in which he threw that drink at me, not to mention hit my chin surprised the hell out of me! Again, another negative aspect and chapter of my life I am ready to close. I could have retaliated and threw a chair or flipped a table but I prefer to bow out gracefully.

Closing one chapter and opening up another one, DATING!!!! I am having fun dating. Will and I had fun at my divorce/independence party but that is where it started and ended. He is a friend, nothing more. I don’t have a boyfriend at the moment. My main priority is business and myself! I am focusing most of my attention on my new lip gloss line, Lucid Cosmetics available at www.lucidcosetics.com. But a girl deserves to play a little bit and go on a few dates.

Friendships like relationships go through ups and downs. It’s a part of life. Basketball Wives captures the good, the bad and the ugly at times. I believe it is how you bounce back. Can our friendships withstand this crazy world of reality TV? Stay tuned for next week to see how the Basketball Wives Reunion concludes for Season 3 …

3. Jennifer: Getting Divorce Right Thing To Do!

HollywoodLife.com sits down with Jennifer to discuss Eric’s sorry attempt at an apology — and Jennifer reveals what she’s looking for in her next man!

Basketball Wives star Jennifer Williams has been through enough heartbreak with her soon-to-be ex-hubby Eric Williams. During the Aug. 8 season finale, Eric completely disrespected Jennifer by throwing a drink in her face after they had a massive fight. But Jennifer remains positive that she will find someone better than Eric the next time around. Jennifer tells HollywoodLife.com exclusively all about Eric’s lame text message apology and what she thinks about the way Eric treated her as she answers fan questions!

“We have not had a conversation since [the incident],” Jennifer admits. “He texted me a few days after he threw the drink and he apologized. But then he said, ‘I heard you found someone.’ That was definitely not the person I married, or maybe it was and it was hidden all that time. To me that just goes to show that you can know someone and never really know them.”

Jennifer feels that her divorce party demonstrated her strength and independence from Eric. “For the longest time, I had been very uncertain of what I was going to do and just really not happy,” she explains. “To me it symbolized moving forward, being happy and just being independent. Why not celebrate that?”

And even though it was hard to have the struggles of her relationship on TV, Jennifer has no regrets. “It was difficult at times,” she confesses. “But I don’t live with regrets. I’m glad it happened that way because who knows — if I wasn’t forced to talk about these things, I may still be in that miserable situation.”

Jennifer is even moving on with her dating life, even though she’s not ready to settle down with a new guy just yet. “I’m looking for a guy that can make me laugh, we have a good time,” she says. “Right now, I definitely don’t want anything serious. I’m focusing on me.”

She also shares some advice with her friend and co-star Evelyn Lozada, who is about to get married to Chad Ochocinco. “When you get married, you just really have to be on the same page with the person,” Jennifer notes. “Trust and communication is key.”
