Kelcey Wright Johnson, a Memphis Grizzlies sideline reporter, gained significant attention after an interview with the team’s star player, Ja Morant.
The interview went viral, partly due to Morant’s noticeable effort to keep his gaze away from her. This event boosted Wright Johnson’s popularity, with her Instagram following nearly doubling from 100k to almost 200k.
She is known not only for her professional work but also for her striking fashion sense and lifestyle content on social media, including pictures in bathing suits.
Another Kelcey Wright Johnson’s post, where she appears in a black bikini with her back turned, comes with an empowering message:
“Happy Friday, everyone! Just a quick reminder to love every inch of your perfect self this weekend! 🍑
Seriously… Stop being so hard on yourself!”
In one older post she posted an image of herself with a surfing board that captioned: Talk about feeling good half naked…..
And in the most recent one, she has a company of a flamingo.
This last one was posted right before the infamous Ja Morant interview and that can be seen by the attention the post gained compared to other posts on her account.
