Dixon seems to be an athlete; she has shared several photos of herself playing volleyball with a team, but it’s not clear if it’s a high school or college team.

Morant posted the first picture of Dixon on Valentine’s Day, but Dixon shared a picture of her boyfriend in December.

Even though Morant has only shared a few photos on Instagram, he already has more than 300,000 fans.

People want to know more about Morant’s personal life because the young player has become something of a sleeper pick. FiveThirtyEight says that Morant could be the first college basketball player in this century to be picked in the top five of the NBA draft from a school that hasn’t been to the NCAA tournament more than 100 times.

Morant’s college is a good example of how unnoticed he was as a high school prоspect. According to The Post and Courier, Morant only got scholarship offers from South Carolina State and Maryland Eastern Shore. Murray State finally gave him an offer after a coach “stumbled upon him.”
