Is KK Dixon really Ja Morant's wife? All you need to know

Basketball fans frequently wonder who Ja Morant's wife is. The Memphis Grizzlies superstar has often been linked with KK Dixon, which has led to speculations that he was married to her.

Morant is one of the best players in the NBA, which is why everything he does is put under the microscope. It's not surprising, therefore, that fans are interested in his personal life and his relationships too.

Ja Morant is the father of one child, Kaari Jaidyn Morant, who was born in 2019. This is the only child the Grizzlies superstar has, whose mother is KK Dixon. Due to this, many fans believed the two were married. However, that is not the case; KK Dixon has never been Ja Morant's wife.

Dixon, who is 23, began dating Morant in 2018. At the time the young superstar played for Murray State College, and was considered one of the best basketball prospects in the entire nation.

It's important to note that Morant played his first professional season in 2019. Staying in a serious relationship and taking care of a child can be difficult for young players, especially rookies.

However, the Grizzlies superstar and his ex-girlfriend evidently did not let their problems affect their child. They both care deeply about their daughter and do their best to be good parents.
