Production is currently slated to begin immediately and the series is expected to premiere later this year.
"Building on the success of Basketball Wives, we want to take a look at the differences and challenges of being the better half of a player in America's most popular sport," said VH1 programming executive Jeff Olde.
"We are thrilled to expand this franchise and give viewers access to a new, unique and exclusive world that you have to see to believe."
Similar to Basketball Wives, which premiered last month, the new docu-reality series will follow the players' wives in their everyday lives.
