New York Knicks forward Marcus Morris called WNBA players to apologize for making a sexist comment after Wednesday’s loss to the Memphis Grizzlies.
Referring to Grizzlies forward Jae Crowder, Morris said he has “a lot of female tendencies on the court. Flopping, throwing his head back the entire game. It’s a man’s game and you just get tired of it. He’s soft. That’s how he carries [himself]. It’s just very woman-like.”
Morris placed calls to several WNBA players after first apologizing on Twitter.
I apologize for using the term “female tendencies” I have the upmost respect for women and everything they mean to us.
