Ja Morant has seemingly made it his habit of being in the middle of controversies over the last few weeks. The Memphis Grizzlies superstar cannot seem to stop himself from getting caught in troubling situations.
Morant was most recently caught streaming a video on his Instagram Live where he flaunted a gun and is under investigation by Colorado police for potentially breaking any laws. The situation has led NBA analyst Skip Bayless to wonder if Morant wants to be a member of the Crip gang.
“I’ve called around the league to people I’ve known forever, talking about Ja,” Bayless said. “Because I was so shocked by the IG Live, how brazen it was. And I had several people say to me, ‘Well, timeout, are you sure you guys on TV aren’t giving him a pass here, like you’re not that?’ They’re asking me, ‘Are you sure he’s not that?’ Like, that’s just who he is, that he is about that life.’ And remember, he’s thrown up the Crips sign, I’ve seen him throw it up two or three times. I’ve probably missed some other times.”
Skip Bayless’ co-host Shannon Sharpe nodded in agreement with Bayless’ point. Skip further continued and wondered if Ja wants to become a member of the Crip gang.
What does that mean?” Bayless said. “Does that mean he wants to associate with the Crips? Or did he get initiated by the Crips? Or he has a dream of being a Crip? I don’t know. I’m just throwing this out–that, are we missing the boat here that that’s just who he’s been from the start and we keep saying, ‘No, you’re just associated with the wrong people,’ when he’s actually part of the wrong people.”

Bayless has always been known for his ruthless takes regarding NBA players. But could Skip actually be right this time around? After all, there have been rumors about Ja throwing signs associated with the Crip gang.
Ja Morant Has Allegedly Thrown Rollin’ 60s Neighborhood Crips Gang Sign
Ja Morant has always been quite savage when it comes to celebrations after scoring buckets in the NBA.
Here’s a celebration that Morant performed and led to the allegation of throwing Rollin’ 60s Neighborhood Crips gang sign.
Many believe that Morant was indeed showing a Crip gangs sign. While others dismissed the allegation and supported Morant.
All things considered, Ja Morant is certainly not in the good books of most fans and the Grizzlies franchise as well. He is currently serving a two-game suspension for the gun flashing incident. However, head coach of the Grizzlies, Taylor Jenkins, believes Morant may miss more than two games.
