Ja Morant is a budding NBA champion who credited his daughter Kaari Jaidyn Morant as his motivation. The talented player is a point guard for the Memphis Grizzlies and has excellent skills. Nevertheless, he continues to strive for more improvement so that his daughter, Kaari Jaidyn Morant, will see him as a perfect role model as she grows older.

His skills on the basketball court have endeared him to many, and the same can be said for his daughter Kaari. She has most of her father’s fans wrapped around her little pinkie thanks to her too-sweet persona and her passion for her father and his career. 

Kaari Jaidyn Morant is always on the sidelines, cheering when her father wins, and she also cheers when he loses. As far as Ja is concerned, there could be no greater motivation to deliver his best consistently.

What We Know About Kaari Jaidyn Morant  

Kaari was born to Ja Morant and KK Dixon. There is some confusion around their relationship timeline because they kept things private until their split. However, the former couple were together long enough to have a baby. 

Their fans found out they were no longer together after unfollowing each other on Instagram in 2020. Their daughter, Kaari, was born on August 7, 2019. She was born premature and had to remain at the hospital for weeks after the delivery. 

Reports claim that Kaari’s mother developed preeclampsia and suffered convulsive seizures. She had to undergo an emergency delivery and nearly passed away. Her parents have decided to remain cordial to make co-parenting possible.

Who Is Kaari Jaidyn Morant’s Mother?

Kaari Jaidyn Morant’s mother is Kadre “KK” Dixon. She was born in August 1999 and is an Arkansas native. In college, Dixon was an athlete who enjoyed volleyball and basketball. She is the founder and CEO of Dixon Brands LLC and the author of a children’s book titled “Kaari & Kree’s Ultimate Coloring & Activity book.”

Dixon adores her daughter. She is fond of posting cute pictures of her on her Instagram, where she has over 40k followers. Sometimes she shares videos from her and Kaari’s travels. One time they made a trip to the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Bentonville, Arkansas, to observe the paintings. 

There was also a time they were in Arkansas to make the most of the snow and the beach. These are only a few memories the doting mom has created with Kaari. She has spoken at length about how crucial it is for her to get quality time and bond with her daughter.

What Happened Between Dixon and Ja? 

Dixon met Ja Morant while they were both freshmen in college. The NBA star was a student at Murray State University in Kentucky. They started dating in 2017, but their relationship did not become official until a year later.

The pair spent two years together before they welcomed their daughter Kaari. Since they keep their personal life details out of the spotlight, there are conflicting reports of what may have caused their split or if they have reconciled.

Kaari has been living with her mom, but she and Ja have a great co-parenting relationship that allows them to be there for their daughter in separate ways. They now take turns spending time with her. 

While he cannot always be with her like Dixon, Ja has learned how to balance the pressures of his career with fatherhood. How could he not? His daughter makes it easy for him because she is just as passionate about his games as he is. 

Kaari enjoys watching her father’s matches at home or on the court, making her father proud. Ja said Kaari made him feel better after losing a game because of an injury in February 2022.

The NBA star has stated that Kaari is a source of motivation to him. He hopes to continue growing so he can one day be mentioned with the greats like Magic Johnson and be genuinely worthy of being Kaari’s role model.
