Ja Morant Sends Message Amid Disrespectful Grizzlies Conversation
Breaking his social media silence on Friday afternoon, Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant's shared a message that seemed to be calling out some of the disrespectful conversations from the last few days:
While it's unclear exactly what Morant is referencing, there have been a few viral Grizzlies takes the last few days that the star point guard could be responding to. The most notable example is former NBA forward Evan Turner suggesting the Grizzlies should move from Memphis to Nashville.
This discussion from JJ Redick's The Old Man and the Three podcast went viral, and it was something Grizzlies fans understandably didn't like. Another conversation circulating over the last few days was about Ja Morant vs. Jalen Brunson, with some claiming the Knicks star is currently above the Grizzlies star. It feels less likely Morant was responding to this, since this was mostly a debate between fans, but it was one of the more prominent discussions surrounding the Grizzlies in recent days.
Whether Morant was specifically addressing one of these talking points or something else is unclear, but the Grizzlies star felt it was time to break his social media silence. What's undeniable is that there have been some disrespectful conversations about the Grizzlies in recent days, especially the conversation about moving them elsewhere. In a city that absolutely loves their team, the Grizzlies do not want to leave Memphis.
