The standout player for the Memphis Grizzlies, Ja Morant, made his FedExForum debut during a home game against the Indiana Pacers. During the postgame interview, he had a sweet moment with his father.
The 24-year-old Morant attempted to convince his daughter Kaari Jaidyn, age four, to recite his catchphrase after he wins at home. Although she wasn’t feeling it at the time, her grin went viral and caused the video to become widely shared.
Morant told his daughter, “It’s a pa… “You don’t understand today? We’re not prepared yet?”
It’s a parade within my city, sure, that’s what Morant wanted his daughter to say. Perhaps the next time. The Grizzlies are currently 2-0 since their franchise player’s comeback.
Can Memphis’ season be saved by Ja Morant?
The Grizzlies (8-19) are currently in 13th place in the Western Conference standings after missing the first 25 games of the 2023–24 NBA season without star center Jared Curry.
Morant can undoubtedly make a difference and keep the team’s season alive. You still have time to make a difference.
After finding a new lead, Morant’s daughter seems to be around, which suggests that his mind is in the proper place following his extended suspension.
