“Ja brings positive things to the team’s playing style thanks to his excellent tactical vision. Mental aspects like his ability to bond with teammates on the field are a natural talent. I don’t mean leadership but just investment in team work that is truly impressive.
Besides, Ja had a very positive attitude throughout this time. I know the team getting off to a bad start might upset him. We understand the situation and will try to get back on track.”
The Memphis Grizzlies need Ja Morant to return as a fiery catalyst for the entire team after a disappointing start to this season. They have a 2-8 record, ranking at the bottom of the Western region rankings.
The 24-year-old ball-playing defender received a 25-match suspension in the 2023/2024 season after league leaders looked into the gun-playing scandal on his live stream on social network Instagram. This punishment comes just three months after Morant was suspended for eight matches for a similar incident.
