Fans of VH1’s Basketball Wives are familiar with the wives, ex-wives, and current girlfriends of NBA players and agents. Over the years, fans have been privileged to see some of these influential men grace the small screen — from Doug Christie to Matt Barnes. However, some women have decided to keep their former flames and ex-spouses out of the mix, and that includes Malaysia Pargo when it comes to ex-husband Jannero Pargo.

Day-one Basketball Wives fans can recall Malaysia speaking candidly about the demise of her marriage with Jannero. And of course, cheating was the straw that broke the camel’s back. However, the pair have been able to maintain a solid co-parenting relationship.

Unfortunately, a recent episode of the series showed Malaysia calling out her ex-husband for not paying child support. And since Jannero now works as a coach in the league, fans have questions about his finances. So, what is Jannero Pargo’s net worth? Here’s what we know.

Additionally, there are no details available about Jannero’s love life. Ever since Jannero and Malaysia parted ways in a rather nasty divorce battle that lasted from 2012 to 2014, there has been no mention of Jannero dating anyone.

In fact, Jannero’s Instagram page only shows minor highlights of his basketball career and his work as a coach. As of late, many users have been trolling the coach for allegedly not paying child support. Even though Jannero has yet to respond to Malaysia's claims that he’s not holding up his end of the bargain, social media trolls have been relentless. And since Jannero has mostly remained mum about Malaysia, fans don’t expect for the coach to respond.

Catch new episodes of Basketball Wives Monday at 8 p.m. EST on VH1.
