Kawhi Leonard, a superstar on the basketball court, is more on the simpler side off it. He is public about very few things in his life. He likes to keep his personal life to himself and has found a partner who is similarly secretive.

In an era where superstars around the world boast about their partners, especially on social media platforms, Leonard seeks to be a little different. He is rarely active on social media platforms. In fact, both Kawhi and his girlfriend Kishele Shipley share very little on public platforms, which differentiates them from other NBA couples.
