Two-time All-Star Ja Morant shared pointed comments after the Memphis Grizzlies’ rough night against the Los Angeles Lakers in an NBA Cup matchup.
Ja Morant continued to not have fun as a member of the Grizzlies on Monday as Memphis lost to the Pistons at FedExForum. Coming off a one-game suspension following a game where his effort was questioned by a number of people, Morant scored 18 points on 5-of-16 shooting and turned the ball over five times.
Memphis Grizzlies suspended Ja Morant for one game for conduct detrimental to the team. Morant will miss Sunday's game against the Toronto Raptors.
