Hopefully they get VH1 in China…

Via TMZ reports:

Sources close to the production tell us … Tasha Marbury is in final talks to join the show — a much needed cast replacement after Royce, Jennifer and Kesha were all axed.

We’re told producers approached Tasha for two main reasons … she’s actually a basketball wife (she and Stephon married in 2002) … and secondly she’s already friends with some of the other “wives.”

Sources tell us, Tasha was previously asked to do season 1 of “BB Wives”, except Stephon nixed the idea — but now he lives in China part time playing for the Beijing Ducks … and changed his tune.

We’re also told producers are still looking to fill a couple more spots. One of which might be Evelyn Lozada’s — considering she has yet to make decision about returning to the show.

What other baller wives would you like to see on the next season of “Basketball Wives?”
