Aaron Gordon’s dynamic performances for the Denver Nuggets have captured attention on the court, but his personal life has sparked even more curiosity. Fans have long wondered about his romantic relationships and past flings. As for what’s currently going on in his love life, well, that’s still a mystery. But one thing’s for sure—his past relationships, including with a model, have shown a different side to the athlete.

While the hooper is known to keep much of his personal life private, we still have plenty of details about his dating history. Let’s inspect the hooper’s relationship status and the women who’ve been part of his life.

Who is Aaron Gordon dating? Did the Denver Nuggets star recently end his relationship with a famous Brazilian model?

Gordon started dating Izabela Guedes, in March 2020. Born on December 4, 1989, she is a Brazilian Model, makeup artist, and social media influencer. Their relationship blossomed slowly, with the couple choosing to keep things low-key, only occasionally sharing glimpses of their life on social media.

Her life goes beyond basketball. She is a successful model and entrepreneur, and though their connection was relatively under the radar, their chemistry was evident in the photos they shared. Do you know she was the first ever seasonal Playmate for Playboy magazine? Yes, she was. She stated this historic moment as her opportunity to showcase her Brazilian culture.

“Honestly, I was just so, so happy. I couldn’t believe they chose me. I’ve been modeling for so long, so to be part of Playboy is just incredible. It’s such an iconic magazine and so important to our culture. I think it’s an opportunity to get to know a Playmate better. For example, I’m from Brazil, so this is an opportunity to show a little bit of my Brazilian culture, which is cool. I think it’s a chance to know a Playmate better. And you can develop an even stronger connection with them. I think one month goes by so fast so three months is definitely cool.” She said in an interview with Fox News.

However, going back to her relationship with Aaron, their romance was an intriguing mix of long-distance challenges and a quiet, shared understanding. Before her relationship with Gordon, she had been involved with rapper Wiz Khalifa and former MLB player Matt Kemp. Gordon’s career often took him across the United States for games and events, while she stayed grounded in Brazil or sometimes in the US, managing her own business.

The distance seemed to take its toll, and after over a year together, the couple parted ways in August 2021. However, the reasons behind their split were never fully disclosed. Neither of them publicly addressed the details of the breakup, and despite rumors about the strain of the long distance, they both respected each other’s privacy in the aftermath.

Though their time together was brief, it was a chapter of Gordon’s life where he allowed a bit of softness to emerge. His relationship with Izabela didn’t garner the same media frenzy as some of his other life moments, but it was one that showed a quieter, more personal side of the athlete. But, do you know before this the hooper dated an ex-basketball player?

Who is Dakota Gonzale? Aaron Gordon’s ex-girlfriend, who played professional basketball.

It was the summer of 2017 when Aaron Gordon first caught Dakota Gonzalez’s eye in high school. They were both young, full of ambition, and had a shared love for sports. Dakota, a basketball player at UNLV, was carving out her own path, while Aaron was making waves in the NBA. Their connection was instant, and soon they were inseparable. Throughout their time together, they kept things private, sharing only glimpses of their lives on social media. A photo here, a video there—enough to keep fans curious but not enough to reveal too much.

The couple’s relationship, though grounded in love, was also defined by distance. Aaron’s NBA career kept him on the move, while Dakota’s basketball schedule took her to different places, too. But it wasn’t just the miles that separated them. There was an undeniable tension that grew over time, something unspoken but felt by both. After over six years of being together, the cracks began to show, and in February 2020, they quietly parted ways.

She never fully left the spotlight after their breakup. She transitioned into a social media influencer, building a loyal following and sharing her life with the world. The duo, known as Dyl-Kota, even enjoyed some success as a singing act alongside her twin sister. Aaron, meanwhile, moved on, and rumors of a new relationship with Izabela Guedes surfaced later that year.

But there was one last memory that lingered—an Instagram video from 2018. In it, Aaron, Dakota, and a few friends, including Mo Bamba and Terrence Ross, were seen joking around on the golf course. It was one of their final moments in the public eye, a quiet reminder of what once was.

In summary, keeping his personal life private despite public curiosity about past relationships has attracted attention. Currently, Gordon’s relationship status remains unclear, with no confirmed details about a new partner. One question remains: Is he seeing someone now, or is he focusing on basketball?
