Former WNBA star Kysre Gondrezick is making waves again, but this time it’s not her basketball skills stealing the spotlight. A single selfie has set the internet ablaze, showcasing her toned physique in a pink lace bra and black pants. The photo, shared on X (formerly Twitter), quickly went viral, racking up over 33,000 likes and 1 million views in no time. But here's where it gets controversial—while many praised her confidence and beauty, others criticized her choices, sparking a heated debate about her career path and personal life.
Gondrezick, 28, who was drafted fourth overall by the Indiana Fever in the 2021 WNBA Draft and later played for the Chicago Sky, captioned the photo with a quote about a “grown woman body.” Born in Benton Harbor, Michigan, she honed her basketball skills at West Virginia University after starting at the University of Michigan. Beyond the court, Gondrezick has ventured into modeling and acting, with plans to return to basketball in the 2026 AU Pro Basketball season.
Reactions on X were as diverse as they were passionate. Fans like @BrizzleBets gushed, “I stg she’s the prettiest girl in the world,” while @WhatIMiss22 boldly declared, “I’d sign this woman to my team immediately.” Yet, not everyone was impressed. Critics like @oG_Lavvon dismissed her physique, saying, “She built like a girl. Not a woman.” Others, like @micah4331896103, took jabs at her personal life, referencing her past relationship with NBA player Jaylen Brown and suggesting she should pursue other ventures.
And this is the part most people miss—Gondrezick has openly discussed her reluctance to date NBA players, stating in a video, “If I wanna expand my emotional intelligence & my wisdom, I’ve got to experience something different.” This selfie, however, seems to blur the lines between her athletic and modeling careers, leaving fans and critics alike divided.
The discussion intensified with quote tweets, some comparing her off-court success to Michael Jordan’s legacy, while others couldn’t resist bringing up Brown. One user, @EelonRuined, even posted a video with the caption, “Still ain’t fire up that OF,” hinting at speculation about her future endeavors.
As Gondrezick continues to expand her presence beyond basketball, blending her athletic prowess with modeling, one thing is clear: she’s not afraid to challenge norms. Is she redefining what it means to be a modern athlete, or is she simply playing the game of fame? Let us know your thoughts in the comments—do you admire her boldness, or do you think she’s veering off track? The debate is on, and we’re all ears.
