[Saba Sports News] While playing professionally often takes athletes away from their hometowns, they never forget their roots.
This holds true for Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant, who seemed proud to be alongside New Orleans Pelicans star Zion Williamson and two-time WNBA MVP A’ja Wilson—all hailing from South Carolina. SLAMOnline posted a photo of the trio on X (formerly Twitter), to which Morant responded, “Stamp dat!!”
All three have made names for themselves in basketball: Morant’s explosiveness has led the Grizzlies to three consecutive playoff appearances, though they’ve yet to make a deep run.
Despite off-court challenges, Morant’s maturity, paired with the addition of veteran Marcus Smart, could help the Grizzlies reclaim contender status.
Meanwhile, Zion Williamson, another South Carolina product, is looking to lead the Pelicans deeper into the playoffs, while the team contemplates roster moves.
On the WNBA front, A’ja Wilson has become a dominant force, breaking records and aiming for her third consecutive league title and MVP, solidifying her as the most decorated of the trio.
