Kyrie Irving recently went live on Instagram and shared a powerful message on the current Ja Morant situation:

"Whatever color you are, whatever creed, whatever religion you are, a lot of us need nurturing," Irving said. "We need to normalize family time, taking off the veil of technology. Stop letting technology control your f--king mind. Stop letting this sh-t do that. Go out in the sun, ground yourself. Learn what peace and mind actually means and pray to God."

Morant is currently suspended from all Memphis Grizzlies team activities after his second gun video incident, and the NBA is expected to hand him a significant suspension to begin next season. While so many people are debating that side of the situation, Irving took a different approach, speaking on the human element, and taking care of Morant as an individual.

Irving also spoke on Morant's first gun video incident, saying this in March:

"Ya'll saw what's going on," Irving said. "Come on, man. We don't even have to go into [Ja Morant]. We don't even have to go into that. We don't have to go into that, because [Ja Morant] is not the only person that's dealt with real life circumstances. He's not the only one, and he won't be the only one. So guess what I'm gonna do? I'm going to stand and make sure that I'm there for my family and for my friends. We all make mistakes. We all do things that we regret. But somehow when you're a celebrity and you're famous, you're underneath different rules."

Always willing to share his thoughts, Irving gave a powerful message on the current Ja Morant situation.
