The Memphis Grizzlies have been able to win without Ja Morant, but fans will be glad to see him back nonetheless. And they had some interesting reactions to the news of his suspension.

I don’t know if this is or isn’t right – I just know that Adam Silver definitely was going to be soft here and in the least surprising fashion, he was.
As for Ja – genuinely hope he gets right. By all accounts he’s taking the steps, hopefully they matter. https://t.co/yMoF9Mvouf

Ultimately, the only thing that matters is that Ja Morant stops getting himself into trouble, and this fan explained everything that needed to be said: “I don’t know if this is or isn’t right – I just know that Adam Silver definitely was going to be soft here and in the least surprising fashion, he was. As for Ja – genuinely hope he gets right. By all accounts he’s taking the steps, hopefully they matter.”
The Timeline Of The Ja Morant Saga
Now that the whole ordeal seems to be at an end, it’s interesting to look at how things have unfolded. It all began when Ja Morant was spotted with a gun on Instagram while appearing to be in a strip club.
This led to wild speculation about how long he might be out for the Grizzlies. He took some time away from the team, made a public apology, and got checked into counseling in Florida. He met Adam Silver in New York on Wednesday and could now be back in action as soon as next week. The hope is that he has learned something from the whole situation.
