Ja Morant Reacts to Nets Starter Wearing his Shoes
Ja Morant's first signature Nike sneaker has been one of the most popular basketball shoes of the summer. NBA players around the league have been wearing Morant's Ja 1 shoe, as have countless young hoopers across the world. One of the latest NBA players to be seen rocking Morant's signature shoes was Brooklyn Nets starter Royce O-Neale. Reacting to this, Morant shared this Tweet:
Morant is always appreciative of the league-wide support he has, whether that's in his personal life, on the court, or with something like this. The Memphis Grizzlies star has been a major hit for Nike, as he continues to ascend in popularity and success. While some wondered whether Nike would cut ties with the star point guard after his second gun video incident, the brand has stuck by his side while he works to better himself and put that behavior in the past.
Morant will serve a 25 game suspension to begin the new season, but the Grizzlies star seems determined to prove he is still one of the best players in the league upon his return. Memphis has made some solid offseason additions to their roster, and should have the ability to stay afloat while awaiting Morant's return.
Once Morant does return to the lineup, the Grizzlies will look to make a deep run in the always competitive Western Conference.
