Best pro athlete homes on the market: Troy Aikman wins.

MITCH BLATT

One week ago, Mike Hampton listed his Paradise Valley, Ariz. home on the market for $4 million. The 9,297 square foot home has 6 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, a huge kitchen, wine room, pool, game room and “man cave” full of memorabilia and a basketball court, batting cases and indoor gym.

This got us wondering: which athlete has the best home now on the market? I got in contact with a PR director from Trulia, a real estate listing site that has many celebrity listings, and he shared with me the listings of some of the most luxurious compounds in sports.
