Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown has ended his relationship with WNBA free agent Kysre Gondrezick. The superstar NBA guard who was in the much talked relationship with the WNBA star, put full stop to his personal interest.
The couple has called it a split ahead of the NBA season, as reported by Page Six. However, it is a hard pill to swallow for people close to the basketball duo, as sources have said. Brown and Gondrezick began dating last summer and made their red carpet debut together at the 2024 ESPY Awards. Sources indicated that Brown ‘began distancing himself to focus on basketball.’
While there isn’t any direct communication from either of the parties regarding the core reason for the call-off, speculations are running high. However, the news came out of nowhere as they were together for some time and had no such clue for their fans. During their time together, Brown was totally invested in Kysre, as people closely following the relationship explained.

Reflecting on those difficult moments, Brown noted that being a target of trade discussions and facing booing from fans did not deter him. Instead, it fueled his determination to do more and improve.
“Things have not gone my way and haven’t been catered to, in a sense, which has made me stronger. I think it has made me a better player, has driven me. I can complain, but in reality, it made me the best. So I’m grateful for it. Even if it was indirect, I know that it wasn’t intentional. It is what it is. It made me better,” Brown said, as per Chris Mannix of Sports Illustrated.
At just 28 years old, Brown has emerged as one of the NBA’s premier two-way players. Averaging nearly 23 points, six rebounds, and nearly five assists per game this season, he has earned recognition as a four-time All-Star.
Despite often being seen as the secondary option behind teammate Jayson Tatum, Brown demonstrated his crucial role during the Celtics’ championship run. He clinched MVP honors in both the Eastern Conference Finals and the NBA Finals.
