Kysre Gondrezick<\/a>‘s had a wild time on and off the court … and we’re here for it all!<\/p>\n

The professional basketball player’s played for several different teams throughout her athletic career … and she’s since branched out into modeling.<\/p>\n

We’re going to take a look and see how the athlete made a name for herself — and how she ended up being named as Miss June 2025 by a long-running publication.<\/p>\n

Kysere Comes From An Athletic Family<\/p>\n

Kysre’s not the only one in her family with athletic experience, because her father, Grant, played in the NBA for several years, and her mother, Lisa, played guard at Louisiana Tech.<\/p>\n

Plus, the athlete’s sister played for the Michigan State Spartans women’s basketball team, and her uncle Glen also spent several seasons in the NBA.<\/p>\n

Kysre followed in her mother’s footsteps and played college ball, as she spent a single season with the Michigan Wolverines.<\/p>\n

The athlete eventually transferred to the University of West Virginia, and she played with the Mountaineers for three seasons.<\/p>\n

She’s Played On Two WNBA Teams<\/p>\n

Kysre began her career in the WNBA in 2021, when she was picked by the Indiana Fever after putting on a stellar performance in the NCAA Women’s Tournament, according to CBS Sports<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The thing is, the athlete only spent a single season with the Fever before she was waived by the team.<\/p>\n

She remained unsigned until May 2024, when it was announced she’d made the Chicago Sky’s Opening Day roster.<\/p>\n

Kysre ended up being waived by the Sky later in the year, and she joined the AU Pro Basketball league in 2025.<\/p>\n

Kysre Formerly Dated An NBA Star<\/p>\n

Kysre’s love life’s been connected to the court, as she was formerly in a relationship with Kevin Porter Jr.<\/a>, who currently plays for the Milwaukee Bucks.<\/p>\n

However, the pair’s relationship became the subject of controversy in 2023, when the athlete’s former boyfriend allegedly assaulted her at a hotel in Manhattan.<\/p>\n

Although Kysre told the New York Post<\/a> her former boyfriend hadn’t hit her, Porter later pled guilty to misdemeanor assault and a harassment violation in relation to the alleged incident, according to ESPN<\/a>.<\/p>\n

She was later linked to NBA star Jaylen Brown<\/a>, and the pair attended the 2024 ESPYs together.<\/p>\n

She Was Named As Miss June 2025<\/p>\n

Kysre’s maintained an active life off the court, as the athlete was named as Playboy’s Miss June 2025<\/a> in October 2025.<\/p>\n

The publication made the big news known by sharing a post on Instagram. It’s worth noting she’s become the first current professional basketball player to have ever been named as a Playmate.<\/p>\n

Kysre issued a brief statement at the time and claimed the move into modeling was a natural “evolution,” not a “transition.”<\/p>\n

The athlete then claimed her participation was Playboy was part of her process of “building a multidimensional brand.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"How Kysre Gondrezick Went From Basketball To Modeling Published October 28, 2025 2:03 PM PDT | Updated October…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":258179,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[73],"tags":[4,483,3,99,484,434],"class_list":["post-258178","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-wnba","tag-breaking-news","tag-hip-hop","tag-news","tag-sports","tag-tmz-hip-hop","tag-wnba"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258178","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=258178"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258178\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/258179"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=258178"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=258178"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=258178"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
