Meeka & Speedy (real love)

Thursday, August 18, 2011

Hey to all my Team Meeka Claxton fans if you are following the Meeka Claxton fan page on Twitter then you already know that we are true Meeka Claxton fans. This blog is for Bosses and Bossests that know not to  judge a book by its cover. Okay lets take it wayyyyyyyy back b4 BasketBall wives. Meeka is the wife of retired NBA player and current talent scout Speedy Claxton. Speedy played college ball at Hofstra and had a seven-year career in the NBA after being drafted 20th overall by the Philadelphia 76ers in 2000. During his seven season Claxton played for five different franchises, including a stint with the San Antonio Spurs in which he helped the team win a championship backing up Tony Parker.^ Meeka Claxton and husband Speedy Claxton 3/21/2011 (C.Smith/ WENN.com)
But this post isn’t about Speedy, it’s all about Meeka! And unlike most of the cast of Basketball Wives, Meeka has a professional career worthy of an entire post!
Meeka Claxton is co-founder and co-owner of Allure Realty Group along with Shiwana Scott-Reed. According to their web site, Allure Realty Group has offices in Atlanta and Warner Robins, Georgia, the latter of which is home to Robins Air Force Base and a natural fit for a realty group that focuses on relocating.
According to VH1′s site the reason Meeka is on the cast is because she is looking into expanding her real estate empire south into The Sunshine State – and more specifically, Miami!!!
In addition to real estate, Meeka is also the founder and editor-in-chief of Elite Access Magazines, INC. better known as the “Athlete’s Personal Blackbook.” From their web site:
Elite Access Magazines will offer the NBA players and their families a guide to everything luxury making it easier to move from city to city. Elite Access Magazines will serve as the only publication dedicated strictly to the lifestyle of the NBA community. Not for sale, EAM is only available to NBA players & their families, NBA coaches & their families, as well as to each team’s front office staff.
Now there’s a smart business woman. They always say if your going to sell something, sell what you know – and the combination of real estate and being part of a professional athlete’s family is exactly what Meeka knows!
In addition to her many professional accomplishments, Meeka has also accomplished the feat of raising two beautiful young daughters, Aniya and London. Here are both girls from photos tweeted by their proud mom:

A mighty fine looking successful business woman and mother of two who has managed to keep her marriage intact through the hardship of being married to a constantly relocating professional athlete… What’s not to like about her?

So like I said and I will continue to say there is more to Meeka Claxton then just BasketBall wives so if she does not do another season so be it, she has enough to juggle as a WIFE, MOTHER and A BUSINESS WOMAN!!!
