Rare Ja Morant Offseason Content Surfaces

In this story:
Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant has been almost off social media entirely this summer since his second gun video incident. Previously very active on social media, Morant has been taking more time away, which is something he said was intentional. While this is what is best for Morant right now, and Grizzlies fans support him entirely, it is still exciting when offseason content surfaces of the star point guard.
Several Morant photos from "shot by nie" on Twitter have been shared over the last several days, and Grizzles fans have been excitedly sharing the rare offseason content of their star point guard:

Photographers are under-appreciated saviors of the summer when it comes to basketball content. In a day and age when fans have become so used to nonstop content of their favorite players, the summer months can become very dry, which is why pictures like this are always so exciting for fans.
