The most challenging period of Ja Morant life is currently underway. In comparison to the stardom he has enjoyed over the last few seasons in the NBA, the last few days have undoubtedly been a contrast for the 6-foot-2-inch point guard of the Grizzlies. With the Grizzlies finishing the regular season as the second-best team in the West for the second straight year, the two-time All-Star averaged over 27 points, 6 rebounds, and 8 assists per game.
But, the 23-year-old afterward made the decision to display a gun while in a strip club on his official Instagram account, LIVE. Things suddenly got worse, as he hasn’t played in the team’s last 8 games.
Ja Morant won’t, however, wear a Memphis Grizzlies uniform just yet. He needs to step up his conditioning after missing eight games. They don’t want him to suffer an injury now that he is prepared and eager to participate.
