Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green believes Ja Morant’s recent suspension signals deeper problems within the Memphis Grizzlies. Speaking on his podcast, The Draymond Green Show, the veteran shared how he and Stephen Curry sensed something unusual about Ja Morant during Golden State’s 131-118 win over Memphis on October 27.<\/p>
Draymond Green recalled telling Curry after the game that Morant did not look like himself. “Man, Ja is not in his game at all. Something seems off, he’s not the Ja we know,” Green said. That impression grew stronger after Memphis’ loss to the Los Angeles Lakers the following Friday, when Morant declined to discuss his limited minutes and told reporters to ask the coaching staff instead.<\/span><\/p> <\/p> The following day, the Grizzlies suspended Ja Morant for one game, citing “conduct detrimental to the team.” For Green, the decision confirmed his suspicion that something more serious was unfolding behind the scenes. “When I saw [Ja’s] comments, I found them interesting, but all they did was confirm what I was seeing,” he explained.<\/span><\/p> Draymond Green believes Ja Morant is silently protesting against the Grizzlies with his play and that his time in Memphis could be coming to an end 👀
