Ja Morant has been one of the most talked-about athletes of the last month after a series of controversies culminated with Morant showing a firearm in a Denver nightclub and being slapped with an 8-game suspension.
Some pictures of Morant on an Instagram account under the name of ‘soexclusive12_’ have surfaced all over the internet. They clearly show Morant as a kid making references to drugs and reckless behavior.
Many have used these pictures to hammer home the point that Morant glamorized the lifestyle of living recklessly and hasn’t kicked those dreams after making it to the NBA. Others just see these as a kid who made some unwise posts about himself at a young age.
What he does going forward will be what people remember from this situation, as Morant is still very young and has time to redeem himself. If he wants to enjoy the fruits of his NBA superstardom and extend his career, getting into the situations he’s been getting into will not be beneficial.
Has Ja Morant Changed?
Morant was supposed to be indefinitely away from the Memphis Grizzlies to work on himself before returning to the court. He had reportedly checked into a wellness facility in Florida but checked out within a few days after meeting Adam Silver and confirming that his official suspension is for 8 games.
Many are pointing to Morant’s quick return to the league as a sign that the issue has not been properly dealt with. The star did seem earnest during his interview with Jalen Rose about the incident, but it’s hard to say someone has changed after just 2 weeks of controversy. Everyone will be hoping Morant has actually changed, as he could ruin his career by getting into such situations in the future.
Ja is eligible to return for the Grizzlies’ game tonight against the Dallas Mavericks. He’s already been ruled out for the contest but should be making his return sometime this week.
