NBA Coach's Ex-Wife Grabs Attention With Swimsuit Photo at 39

Erik Spoelstra's ex-wife, Nikki, is living her best life on social media.

The ex-wife of the longtime Miami Heat head coach, who divorced her husband in 2023, has made it clear that it was an amicable decision. Her husband ended up landing an eight-year, $120 million contract extension with Miami in January 2024.

"People are very quick to label women golddiggers. Like, โ€˜Oh, if she is with a successful person, she must be in it for the money,'" Nikki told the Miami Herald.

"Do you really think that's all a husband brings to the table? In the end, no one really knows what happened."

Meanwhile, the ex-wife of the longtime NBA head coach is trending on social media, sharing a swimsuit photo to Instagram.

"What's black and white and sliving all over," she wrote.
