Ja Morant, the 22-year-old point guard for the Memphis Grizzlies, has been making waves on the basketball court. But beyond the slam dunks and three-pointers, there’s a side of Ja that’s been capturing headlines: his love life.
A Walk Down Memory Lane: KK Dixon
- The Beginning of a Love Story– Before the spotlight and the NBA contracts, there was Kadre “KK” Dixon. Born in Antoine, Arkansas, KK is no stranger to the basketball world, with a brother, Tyrik, who also plays the sport. The duo’s relationship was kept under wraps initially, with their romance coming to light in 2018 through a shared snapshot on social media.
- A Bundle of Joy– August 7, 2019, marked a significant milestone for the couple as they welcomed their daughter, Kaari Jaidyn Morant. Despite her young age, Kaari is already a social media sensation with a growing following. Both Ja and KK seem to be doting parents, sharing the joys of parenthood.
- The End of the Road– As with many modern relationships, social media gave fans a hint about the couple’s status. Pictures began to disappear, and the unfollow button was clicked. The reasons for their split remain a mystery, but their love for their daughter remains evident.
Rumors and Whispers: Johanna Leia
The rumor mill has been buzzing with whispers of Ja’s alleged relationship with Johanna Leia, Drake’s ex-girlfriend. The 42-year-old mother of two and Ja have been spotted interacting on social media, with Morant even rumored to have flown her to Denver for a game. However, this relationship remains in the realm of speculation, with neither party confirming nor denying the rumors.
Other Romantic Links
- Abigail Russo: After his split with KK, Ja was rumored to be involved with social media influencer Abigail Russo. However, Ja was quick to set the record straight, stating he was single and not looking for a relationship.
- Jaden Owens: The rumor train didn’t stop there. Ja was also linked with UCLA basketball recruit, Jaden Owens. But just like the previous rumor, neither party confirmed nor denied the relationship.
In Conclusion
Ja Morant’s prowess on the basketball court is undeniable. But off the court, his personal life remains a mix of confirmed relationships, cherished moments, and unverified rumors.
While his relationship with KK Dixon and their shared journey of parenthood is well-documented, other rumored relationships remain just that – rumors. As fans, all we can do is wish him the best, both on the court and in matters of the heart.
