I’m out on AJ Griffin in any Siakam deal
If you call yourself a follower of Jesus Christ, you shouldn’t be going to any Beyoncé concerts or any concerts that Promote Satan. ( Ephesians 5:11 )

I’d be there’s more players that are religious like this than you think… but yeahhhhhhhhhh, I’m also good. Can’t imagine this is good for locker-room vibes.
I don’t care if a player is religious but this is just idiotic, pairing Satan with Beyonce and casting judgement upon masses of people? Bro is cooked
Me too, guy seems like he is Jonathan Isaac 2.0.
Is Griff senior like this too? Maybe he does a better job separating his work from his beliefs.
Ppl have said worse lol
I mean, we had the guy who raised him on our bench for years and he seemed to be very liked by players but yeah…
Bible nut would be a strange addition to our locker room.
Passssssssssssssssssssssss….
Man im a Christian but this is a stretch. These guys are almost an entirely different religion
I think Onyeka Okongwu has to be the centerpiece in any Siakam deal. I don’t really care if AJ is in the deal because his athleticism hasn’t returned post-injury. I’d honestly rather get another 1st if they wanna act stingy with a rookie that didn’t play a single playoff minute and tweets dogshit💀
Do it Masai 🍿
quick somebody go ask him about what he thinks of Taylor Swift and BTS
He’s completely entitled to his beliefs but this is a tough fit culturally in Toronto as a city….
Siakam is an underrated culture and personality guy. Never hear a peep from him just good vibes.
The anti LGBT stuff was fine, anti-Beyonce was what did for you guys?
Religious freedoms are okay so long as you agree, right? Not wanting a player because they’re religious makes you look like a bigot. Now if you didn’t want him because he’s unlikely to develop, that’s fine, but that’s not what you posted.
I mean can you really argue the point ? a lot of mainstream artists outwardly promote satanic imagery. If one has the reach and influence to broadcast to millions of people in the world why promote this kind imagery at all?
You’re out on the guy because he’s a christian? LMAO
Reminds of Marc Jackson and Jonathan Isaac.
I grew up Catholic but don’t practice anymore. I believe everyone should believe in what they want but to publicly shame someone for believing something else is not ok.
It’s always the religions that promise “love and kindness” smh
Yall know who his dad is right?
not sure which is more embarrassing, the content or the twitter rebrand X that makes it look like a close button.
I didnt realize Ephesians correctly predicted concerts let alone Beyonce
I’m all for being religious and stuff, if that’s what you gravitate towards all the power to you but this preaching stuff to others nonsense has got to stop, how about we let people do what they want, if it’s good perfect, if it’s bad they can deal with consequences themselves, don’t gotta be salesman of your religion
Seems the tweet no longer exists. He must have taken it down. Probably a wise move on his part. But people can’t unsee things, so I doubt anyone will forget, lol.
Does not pass the caliper test. I’d have a hard time cheering for a guy using his platform to share nonsensical preachy/prescriptive messages like this.
what did he tweet? it’s deleted.

Tweets deleted now but this was it.
Ah yes, another player that fails to pass the moral purity test of Raptors reddit.
Tweet has been deleted but here it is for those who didn’t see it.

Y’all need to take it easy on this guy, he just lost his nephew, it must’ve been a traumatizing and heart wrenching event. In moments like that we often say things we don’t mean.
