Warriors Star Slams Latest Ja Morant Report

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green defended the Memphis Grizzlies star

recent article from ESPN revealed that some within the Memphis Grizzlies organization believe Tee Morant has negatively impacted some of the decisions Ja Morant has made over the last year. This portion of the article has been the center of a lot of discussion, and reads the following:

"Tee moved to Memphis a week after his son was drafted and enjoyed the spoils of his son's rise to superstardom, hosting VIP events and parties at nightclubs, with television cameras often panning toward him," Tim MacMahon and Baxtor Holmes wrote. "Tee also confronted former NFL player Shannon Sharpe at a Jan. 20, 2023, game in Los Angeles, and he argued with Pacers players during a Grizzlies' Jan. 29 home game. Tee's presence, and the spate of incidents, dismayed some in the Grizzlies organization, team sources said... 'Tee has been a major driving force in all of this,' one team source said. 'He never made the NBA, but this was his chance to live like he's an NBA superstar. That's been a problem from the beginning.'"

As previously mentioned, many have taken issue with this, including Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green. The Warriors star wrote in an Instagram story that was captured by Sportskeeda, "Oh no... let's not remove another black father from their child life."

Several people have shared similar reactions, as many feel this was an unfair report to go public with.
