The whole NBA community cheered for Ja Morant when he returned to the Memphis Grizzlies after a record-setting 25-game suspension. Morant was suspended because he showed a gun on social media, which forced the league to do something.
Even though Morant was suspended for a record 25 games, he came back in style. He scored 34 points and made the game-winning shot. Naturally, a lot of NBA stars had something to say about Morant’s return.
Several tweets were put together and posted on Morant’s page, where he only said, “Love is love.”
Yes, that is the right kind of message to send after being suspended for bad behavior. Morant showed how great he is at setting up plays, which made LeBron James and the rest of the league take notice.
James only wrote on Twitter, “12!!!!” That’s it.”
If Morant keeps making great plays and stays out of trouble, he could be one of the biggest success stories in the league. Before he got into trouble with social media, he was one of the most exciting young players. His career then took a big turn for the worse.
