This is most likely a cultural clash. He is a Euro league coach and they prioritize team ball over stars. Ja is probably struggling to digest that. I don't know who in Memphis' front office thought this was going to be a good match, but they know less about hoops than they think they do.
He’s a spoiled brat. He got his money. He should leave. And they fired a good coach over him.
Who tf Tuomas Iisalo?? 😂😂
モラントが外部からの批判に対して精神的にマイナスの影響を受けやすい性格だとわかったうえでチームに残したんだから、モラントをコントロールできるコーチを雇うべきだった
Ja and JJJ only playing 14min together is CRAZYYY
I’d trade Herro away for him
Society is getting worse and worse
Ja sucks as a man….. just a little boy
If you don't want him ship him to NBA purgatory in DC. if he's mad now he'll be mad in DC lol
Memphis should trade Ja before he loses value.
It's crazy how a player with that much talent wastes so much time being unhappy and engaged in some sort of drama. Oh wait. I just described Draymond.
He’s fine in the west
Go ask the coaching staff!
Trading him will not solve the problem. Ja IS the problem. No one is above the good of the team. He's not above the team and shouldn't be treated any differently than anyone else regardless. It is a team sport. Period point blank.
Ja gonna be sitting in Gil's Arena in less than 5 years if he keeps it up
I’ll take ja on my team, he just doesn’t wanna be there
Imagine ja in Minnesota?
Shouldn’t have fired Jenkins.
Dont just blame the coach, shams said his teammates also called his play and leadership out
Shams can barely put a sentence together specially information that we already know lol
Ja’s bad attitude is getting exposed and will consistently get exposed going forward. Not sure if he finds a suitable team anymore.
Let’s be honest here ppl there’s been tension between Ja and the Grizzlies organization since they fired Taylor Jenkins, and they added to it by trading Desmond Bane he definitely wants out and tbh I believe the Grizzlies want out too he’s been nothing bt a headache since his 3rd year he can’t stay healthy his averages are going down across the board and his lack of effort is clearly showing on the court more now than it has in the past, but it’s clearly showing regardless the real question is where do u trade him and what is his value worth bt regardless this is the start of a divorce between Ja and the grizzlies
8 pts?
He’s a cancer!!! What team would want him?
Trade ja morant Memphis not for him nomore
Ja and Edey to Toronto! Let’s goooooo!!!!!
this is sad. want the glory, but take no responsibility.
Total punk. That's why his endorsement deals went from 'in demand' to 'no one cares'
😂
“There’s a parade in my city, yeah.”😂
Sham or whatever his name is terrible
