[Saba Sports News] In a recent statement, Ja Morant’s agent issued a warning to the NBA on behalf of his top client. After a season marred by suspension and injury, the Grizzlies star is poised for a major comeback.
“Ja Morant is coming for all the work this year. All of it. How soon they forget,” said Mike Miller. “That’s all I’ll say: He’s about to come for it.”
Drafted 2nd overall in 2019, the 24-year-old point guard quickly made a name for himself with his athleticism and versatility, earning Rookie of the Year honors and multiple All-Star selections. Morant’s rise helped establish the Grizzlies as a formidable force in the Western Conference.
However, off-court controversies, including threatening behavior and flaunting guns on Instagram Live, led to a 25-game suspension. Morant returned briefly last season before an injury sidelined him again, causing his name to fade from the spotlight.
Now, with a summer to prepare, Ja is gearing up for a significant comeback. He spent his recovery hearing doubts about his leadership and ability to lead the Grizzlies. His agent believes Morant will respond with an elite season.
With the core team, including Desmond Bane, Steven Adams, and Jaren Jackson Jr., returning and new additions on board, the Grizzlies aim for a top-four seed. Morant could even become a top MVP candidate.
The key for Morant will be to stay out of controversy and remain on the court. If he can lead the Grizzlies to new heights, it will secure his place as one of the league’s top point guards and set him back on the path to stardom. The redemption story for No. 12 starts now, and the results could change the league forever.
