Fans are aware of the situation that Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant had experienced before the season started. He was issued a 25-game suspension after brandishing a firearm during a live stream on Instagram for the second time. The NBA didn’t hold back in finding out more about the incident.
In another case, OKC Thunder’s Josh Giddey was accused of allegedly having a relationship with a minor. The local authorities performed an investigation, but it didn’t last long.
Some fans pointed out that the league didn’t dedicate much time to the investigation of Giddey’s case. They compared how the cases were handled.
Former Michael Jordan teammate John Salley, during an interview with DJ Vlad, hilariously addressed why the league worked more on Morant’s incident and didn’t pay enough attention to Giddey’s.
“‘Cause love and guns are two different things,” Salley answered. “Love for guns is two different things.”
Most fans were surprised that Giddey has been able to practice, travel and play while under investigation. However, in Ja Morant’s situation, he was suspended by the league. Some fans are calling out the NBA for what they perceive as unfair treatment.
In November, fans shared their sentiments as they saw the report about Giddey’s availability. Here are some of the online reactions.
Many former players have given names of which players they like. For Gary Payton, he cited Morant as the player he enjoys watching these days.
His comments about the Grizzlies guard start at the 35:38 minute mark.
