In which eight Wives And GirlfriendS of eastern conference NBA players open the doors to their drama filled realities. Why not step inside?

"Welcome to the NBA WAGS season one reunion!" Vivian, the host, enthusiastically smiles at the camera, as the live audience erupts in applause. Once the applause dies down, Vivian continues, "Last year you got to be the fly on these eight couples' walls. You've seen them unite and crumble, rise and stumble. Tonight, we're back to see how they've grown, or regressed in a year, as well as award them based on each other's opinions. We have Rookie of the Year, Most improved Partner, Dramatic Partner of the Year, Couple of the Year, and most importantly, Most Valuable Partner... However, before we bring the cast out, we get to watch each couple reflect on their experiences as well as give their nominations for each award category."
Vivian smiles as the camera pans to the large screen behind them. Zooming in, the video begins playing using the screen as the transition.

Various shots reveal Yadira getting ready before joining Kyrie and making their way downstairs hand in hand. The couple then takes a seat on a white loveseat, their open kitchen in the background.
The sequence comes to a stop ending with them seated close together, Yadira's legs crossed towards Kyrie.
"How do you think our relationship grew and evolved over the season?" Kyrie half-turns toward Yadira, draping his arm on the seat behind her.
"Well, for one we barely got any screen time," Yadira's playful answer evoking a simultaneous laugh between the two. "But that's not an issue at all. Uh, I think our growth as a couple came from our collective growing relationship with our girls. With your job you don't get to spend as much time as you'd like with them and finding that balance really helped us grow along with Jameela and Kemari."
Kyrie smiles and nods in agreement, moving on to the next question, "Do you feel as though we were used as the accessories to other couples?"
"Oh absolutely I do. We were only present when they had drama. But I guess it's just because we're more mature and private in the resolution of our 'drama'." Yadira explains, putting air quotes on the word drama.
"Yeah, and if our being there helped them develop in any way, I suppose we can say we passed down our maturity."
"People are probably so tired of hearing us talk about maturity." Yadira jokes realizing how much herself and Kyrie pointed out their maturity throughout the season.
The screen cuts to a shot of the couple now seated closer together on one side of the loveseat, the split screen showing the different award categories. Kyrie is handed an iPad by one of the producers, as they move on to their votes for each award.
"Our MVP has to be Imahr. She's new but I think she just had tremendous growth and enlightenment this season." Yadira states as a picture of her and Imahr hugging occupies the split screen.
"Yeah her and Matisse's relationship took a step forward and she opened up a lot." Kyrie agrees clicking on Imahr's image to lock in their most valuable partner vote.
