If you lived in this La Quinta, California home, you might be asking yourself, “what NBA lockout?” Equipped with a full-sized indoor basketball court, putting green and game room, the home is a perfect hideaway for the athletically inclined. The palatial family residence features high mahogany beamed ceilings and richly stained hardwood floors. Designed and built with modern luxury in mind, the home possesses features that include state-of-the-art audio/visual electronics, video security and a 13,000 watt solar system. Few homes possess the outdoor flow that this property does. Southern California‘s famous warm weather makes a perfect backdrop for the outdoor entertaining area that features a 65 foot pool with a rock slide and misting system. Inside, experience the full basketball gymnasium with 4 glass backboards. A game room and fitness room are situated at an ideal vantage point overlooking the gym. For those who need a little more relaxation, experience a movie on the 16 foot HD TV with surround sound speakers. Luxury amenities, coupled with exquisitely detailed elements like granite, limestone and hardwood make all the difference in this home.

Alonzo Mourning and his wife Tracy are selling their massive waterfront estate in Coral Gables, Florida, according to The Wall Street Journal. Mourning spent most of his 15 year career in a #33 Miami Heat jersey until he retired from the game in 2009. This home will be the second #33 that he retires, as this for-sale home’s address is 33 Arvida Parkway. Coincidence? We think not.

Mourning’s home is one of only 14 bayfront homes in the Gables Estates neighborhood. The expansive, stunning home is situated on Biscayne Bay in Coral Gables. Exquisite details and craftsmanship accentuate a wonderful floor plan that highlights the breathtaking ocean views throughout. The home features a world class kitchen, extensive terraces, library, spacious formal and informal areas, and a luxurious master suite with limestone fireplace, sitting room, dressing area, steam shower, and his/hers bathrooms and closets.
