Jaren Jackson Jr. Reacts to Ja Morant's Viral Post

Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant shared a picture of his teammates Jaren Jackson Jr. and Desmond Bane on Thursday evening. Posting the picture with no caption, Morant seemed to be showing his support for his co-stars, and received a response from Jackson:

I’m tapped in 🫡 https://t.co/MYVQtnkZ6l

Pretty much anything Morant shares on social media goes viral, and this post has already accumulated almost 1M views. While the Grizzlies star will not be available for the first 25 games of next season, he will be supporting his teammates from afar while he waits out his NBA suspension.

Bane and Jackson, the two players Morant shared on social media, will shoulder most of the offensive load while Morant serves his suspension. Bane emerged as a lethal offensive weapon last season, and Jackson showed some dominant stretches offensively as well. The two will have the be the best versions of themselves for the first 25 games of next season in order to keep the Grizzlies afloat, but this is not entirely foreign territory for the Grizzlies.

Whether it's been due to injuries or suspensions, the Grizzlies have found ways to win without Morant over the last two seasons. They will have to find that again to start next season, especially with the Western Conference getting tougher every single season. If the Grizzlies can tread water until Morant comes back, they'll be in a great spot.
