NBA fans are having mixed reactions to Ja Morant’s terrible performance in the recent matchup against the Rockets. In a viral video, Morant can be seen making unimpressive blunders, which has got many fans irate.
This is not the first time that Morant is guilty of not doing his best to help his team win, with the player playing boorishly ever since this present season kicked off. Morant clearly wants out of the team and the Grizzlies are also eager to trade away the player as soon as possible.
“Ja Morant is ACTIVELY throwing this game. Bro tryna get traded ASAP (crying emoji)” Brick Center tweeted.

“Imagine buying a ticket to this. With actual money.” One fan hilariously noted.
“Ja’s straight up sh***ing this game away. Wants out so bad he’s dropping bricks on purpose (poop emoji)” another fan said.
“Relax, these the same turnovers he’s had all his career. Some slow and sloppy and some too aggressive. Nothings changed.” One fan seemed to take Ja Morant’s side.
For Ja Morant’s blunders in the previous game, the Grizzlies franchise did fine the player and chastised him. However, it seems like nothing has changed and Morant is continuing to disappoint fans and teammates.
NBA Fans Feel Ja Morant Is Gambling After Bad Plays
Meanwhile, many NBA fans feel that Ja Morant may be playing especially bad because he is gambling with his games. Sometime back, a number of ballers were named in an illegal gambling case by the FBI. While Morant’s name was not on the list, some fans feel that the player may be indeed gambling because his performance is so bad.
“He’s gambling, someone call the FBI…” one fan accused Ja Morant.

“I’m taking Ja Morant under from this point on he’s out there Gambling with people’s money and he should be investigated” another fan said.
“Or maybe they gambling again. The recent ordeal opened my eyes. Canceled my subscription ASAP” one more fan added.
While Ja Morant seems to be looking for a way out of the Grizzlies, recent reports state that the player’s trade value may not be that high. This is mainly because of the many controversies surrounding Morant, including the many disciplinary actions he has faced with the team. Still, several fans and critics feel that Morant is still one of the best players out there and that as soon as he hits the market, teams will be battling it out to bring him to their locker rooms.
