It must be nice to have a father who is dedicated to your passion as much as Ja's dad.
-
Dad gave him the tools to succeed, this young man did the hard work to take it to the next
level. -
See what a father can do in a young mans life?
-
I just hope he stays injury free, his style is too explosive very efficient but prone to injuries! all the best Ja!
-
As a professor at Murray State, I can say that Ja put our university on the map. We are super proud of him.
-
His Dad risking it all was all worth it. Ja Morant is the future MVP of the NBA. He is going to win a championship very soon.
-
Just goes to show how important exposure is to athletes. This guy could be at a different job right now if it wasnt for a scout to go watch him play during his snack break. There is just so many up and coming athletes looking for that chance.
-
Incredible how he was a candidate for mvp almost the entire season just in his third season and putting the grizzlies as second seed
-
I’m from Murray and it feels good having a player from our college go to the nba
-
Never forget when Jerry West said that Ja is the most talented on that draft. Unlike Zion who is undisciplined and will most likely quit his team, Ja turn around the grizzlies franchise
-
I’m from Austin Peay, or APSU, and Murray is our rival in pretty much every sport. However, after seeing Morant play against us I knew he was special. The man was absolutely electrifying and the crowd at Murray loved him. Proud that he’s able to lead my team to the playoffs this year!

But just think of how many more guys like him didn't get scouted. It just shows you that if you dig a little deeper at times and look past all the media and flash videos you can find diamond rather than gold.
-
I love underdogs. Hard work pays someday when you least expect. Ja and his Dad deserve all the praise. Best player of the series coming..
-
When I told my friend before the draft that I’d take Ja over Zion he laughed. I still stand by my comment.
-
HARD WORK + PARENTAL GUIDANCE + TALENT = SUCCESS
-
Best shooter in the league by far😮💨
-
From a 0 star recruit to becoming one of the best shooters 🔫 in nba history. Man Ja is on demon time
-
Ja Moronant bout to mess up his dad’s sacrifice if he doesn’t stop trying to be a YSL gang member
-
The future of the NBA is in good hands.
