Valentine's Day Special: Love and Sports (Part 6)

Strategy in and outside the court

Relationships that were born online and transcended on to real life used to be something very uncommon, nowadays, even celebrities get their hearts swept away through social media.

2014's newest rap artist, Iggy Azalea has a relationship with basketball player, Nick Young, who never imagined that after tweeting that he felt attracted to her, the rap artist will respond and least off all started dating him.

Due to her songs, Young thought that Iggy was definitely a party girl, but as it turns out she is the total opposite, the blonde thunder from down under usually just gets up to walk her dogs and cook, much like any down to earth person would do.

Like any other couple Young doesn't deny that they sometimes fight over the TV remote and although many would think that the NBA star has had a rough time due to the bad season his team has gone through, Young says that the real challenge is trying to keep his beautiful girlfriend happy.

Unfortunately, not every sports giants is lucky enough to maintain a relationship with beautiful and high maintenance women. An example of it, is retired NBA star, Chris Webber, who used to date supermodel and entrepreneur, Tyra Banks.

The host of hit reality TV show, America's Next Top Model, never clarified the reasons of their breakup, but its rumored that she was verbally and emotionally abused by the player. For two years the L.A native sat through dozens of games, supporting his now former partner.

Webber played 15 years for the NBA and in 2009, the Sacramento Kings acknowledged his career by retiring his number. Months later, he fell in love with current wife and just recently celebrated their anniversary.
