Laura Govan’s Thoughts On Basketball Wives LA Castmate, Draya; “I don’t speak like she speaks, I don’t do what she does”

Basketball Wives LA star Laura Govan isn’t afraid to speak her mind. She was recently interviewed on Elite DC Radio where she shared her thoughts on castmate Draya, why she’s not mad at groupies and how she describes her relationship with Orlando Magic guard, Gilbert Arenas.

I think Draya is a good person but Draya is a hustler. At the end of the day, I would classify her to be a groupie or a gold digger. She is what she is and she stays in her lane and I can’t knock her hustle and I don’t. That’s just like at the end of the day, we really don’t co-exist like I’m on the floor, you’re in the nose bleeds and I keep it moving. She’ll never have a house and I hope you do have a house one day but today ain’t gonna be the day or even messing with my man or anybody else’s man. Draya walks a fine line but she owns her lane and you have to respect that but at the end of the day, groupies and gold diggers don’t co-exist. I don’t speak like she speaks, I don’t do what she does and she fits in that category so she stays there.

I do feel like somebody is gonna save her. I mean after awhile, she’s always in the mix …I mean she’s dated a lot of athletes. She really has no ties or connections to this show. It is what it is but like I said, I’m not hating on her. I’ve always been the type I never blame the woman, I used too and then I realized wait a minute, if you didn’t pull your pants down this broad wouldn’t even have nothing to say.

I don’t blame the woman, I always blame the guy. I don’t look at the woman anymore and be like “Oh, you raunchy hoe!” For what? She’s just doing her job! She’s just staying in her lane trying to get that cheese when she’s hooked up with him or just trying to get her purse when she rocks with him so it is what it is.

Hmmm is this what you call a ‘compli-diss’? Laura also discusses being back with Gilbert, she terms their relationship ‘ghetto, crazy, dangerous in love.’ At least she’s honest right?
