We have more news on NBA star, Ja Morant.
After the league issued a 25-game suspension for the Memphis Grizzlies’ star player, Morant’s camp feels like the NBA and media are against him. Morant has been in legal issues since September 2022. Whether it was an incident with a 17-year-old boy or waving guns around on social media, Morant has not done himself any favors. His camp believes the NBA is against him; however, a former Alabama player would like to see Morant take accountability for his actions. Damien Harris, a two-time College Football Playoff National Champion, ripped Morant on Twitter. Harris plays for the Buffalo Bills after some time with the Patriots.
Bro just take some real accountability for once! The league spared you, Nike spared you… all people want is accountability and action from you!!!! https://t.co/CTe9uf1i7H
