'Basketball Wives' Star -- Gunning for NFL Boyfriend ... To Model Bathing Suits

Could Dallas Cowboys star Orlando Scandrick become a bathing suit model???

The answer is "yes" if it's up to his reality star girlfriend Draya Michele ... who tells TMZ Sports she's planning on launching a men's swimsuit line -- and only has ONE guy on her mind when it comes to modeling her stuff.

There's just one problem ... Draya knows Orlando ain't too keen when it comes to off-the-field publicity -- but the "Basketball Wives" star (and fashion designer) says she can be pretty convincing when she wants to be.
