Los Angeles County court records show the Lakers superstar recently acquired the services of Laura Wasser, who’s developed such a knack for helping celebrities break up that she’s actually gained the nickname “Disso Queen.” Some of Wasser’s previous clients include Kim Kardashian, Britney Spears, Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Garner.

At the turn of the century, it was Allen Iverson who served as the bridge between hip-hop and basketball while also boasting a massive amount of pop culture influence.

And obsession can often tip over into superstition, especially when trying to replicate optimal competitive conditions. Goddard trains an NBA player who wears the same socks—always inside out—for every game. “He’s never washed them. Ever. They’re atrocious.” Another of Goddard’s players once listened to Post Malone before he put up a career high in points scored. “Now he has to listen to Post Malone every time before he goes out on the court, and the worst part is, he hates Post Malone.”
