NBA star Duncan Robinson and girlfriend Caroline Nava are engaged, a source exclusively tells Us Weekly.
Robinson, the Miami Heat forward who famously signed a $90 million, 5-year contract with the team, and Nava, a real estate agent, celebrated the happy news during a romantic getaway in the Bahamas.
Nava, 26, took to Instagram on Wednesday, February 19, to share photos of their island vacation, which included a snap of the pair hugging by the beach. “Bahamas film ft. my fiance

Gabrielle Union, Ayesha Curry, Jordyn Woods and more stars have settled down with professional basketball players over the years. The Bring It On actress, for her part, met Dwyane Wade in 2007 at a Super Bowl party. The two called it quits in early 2013 due to conflicting schedules and long-distance difficulties, but rekindled their […]
One day prior, Nava posted an Instagram Reel that featured more footage from the trip, including glimpses of Robinson and Nava sipping tropical drinks and sitting on swings in the ocean.
“A weekend full of endless surprises,” Nava wrote in a caption. “I wish I could re-live it over and over again.” Tagging Robinson, 30, she wrote, “Love you forever.”
Us Weekly has reached out to Robinson’s rep for comment.
In August 2021, Robinson joined the Heat after signing the largest contract in NBA history for an undrafted player. He’s been dating Nava, who reportedly grew up in Miami, for several years but keeps his Instagram account focused on work rather than his personal life.
Former NBA star Blake Griffin is engaged to swimwear designer Francesca Aiello. A source exclusively tells Us Weekly that Griffin, 35, popped the question to Aiello, 29, around the holidays and the couple has been keeping it low-key and under wraps. The source said Griffin does not like his relationships to be in the public […]
However, the athlete is a consistent presence on Nava’s social media. Over the holidays, she shared her love for Robinson via Instagram, posting a photo of the pair and writing, “To wake up every morning is a gift – one that is only possible because of our one true gift. Merry Christmas Eve 
”
Robinson and Nava aren’t the only NBA duo to get engaged in the New Year. In January, Us confirmed that former pro baller Blake Griffin had proposed to swimwear designer Francesca Aiello. Griffin, like Robinson, prefers to keep a low profile, but Aiello, 29, couldn’t resist hinting at the news via Instagram on January 22, flaunting a giant, mysterious ring on her left hand.
Griffin, 35, and Aiello, the founder of Frankies Bikinis, first started dating in June 2018 before breaking things off. They reconnected in August 2023 and have been together since.
The power forward, who retired from the NBA in April 2024 after a 14-season career, was previously engaged to Brynn Cameron, with whom he shares two children: son Ford, 11, and daughter Finley, 8. The couple split in the summer of 2017.
“I never envisioned myself as the guy who would have a ‘letter to basketball’ retirement announcement … and I’m still not going to be that guy,” Griffin wrote via Instagram last year. “But as I reflected on my career, the one feeling I kept coming back to and the one thing I wanted to express was thankfulness.”
