A little-known fact about an extraordinary basketball player Yes Morant is that he is a single father of a beautiful 2 year old daughter Kaari Jaidyn Morant.
Ja Morant enjoyed the Grizzlies’ win over the Warriors in Game 5 of the playoff series. A one-sided affair in Morant’s absence was something the Warriors didn’t expect and had never seen before. There are very few things other than winning that excite the Memphis talisman. One of them is none other than his daughter – Kaari Jaidyn Morant.
The 2-year-old is Ja’s heart and soul. She was born on August 7, 2019, two months before her due date, and had to spend a few weeks in the hospital before returning home. Here you will find all the details about the little cutie.
The love story between Ja Morant and his daughter – Kaari Jaiden Morant
Kaari was born to KK Dixon and her ex-boyfriend Ja Morant. The couple separated after the birth of a child. KK posted his photo on her for a month. Additionally, Kaari had been in the NICU for more weeks. Ja Morant also wrote subtitles for him Instagram about his daughter Kaari “You light up my life in my darkest hours, your love gives me the strength to overcome life’s challenges.”
Like her father, she already plays with the ball on the basketball court. One of the titles the 23-year-old is particularly proud of is that of loving father to her three-year-old daughter, Kaari Jaidyn.
A good moment: Morant was injured on a minor hit Thursday night and was ejected in the third period of a game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Kaari, who was watching the match at home, was a little worried about his father’s injury. After the match, the former Newbie of the year got her hands on the adorable and touching clip. When Ja Morant saw this video, all he could do was smile.
It’s so cute. Kaari was really afraid that her father would be hurt and she just had to ask her mother if he was okay. But it was one of those moments that Ja and all fathers like him live for. Plus, kids keep all the high-flying stars close to the family.
