It's safe to say It's been a concerning start to the season for Ja Morant and the Memphis Grizzlies. Now, Grizzlies fans are left with one painstaking possibility in their minds: that they may have already seen the best version of Morant in his NBA career.
This would have seemed like a positively ludicrous suggestion just a couple of years ago. But now, considering everything that's gone on over the last few seasons for Ja in Memphis, it's a question that at least has to be ruminated on.
The latest incident from last week wherein Morant received a one-game suspension for his postgame comments only served as the latest chapter in what is becoming a lengthy history of troubling happenings in the young star's career.
