“Shameless”: Fans Compare Ja Morant to Aaron Rodgers after Devastating News Drops

In devastating news for the fans of the Memphis Grizzles, Ja Morant suffered a season-ending injury. He suffered a torn labrum in his right shoulder and will undergo surgery. He recently came back from a 25-game suspension after he displayed firearms on social media. In the game against the New Orleans Pelicans, he scripted a jaw-dropping victory in the final moments after returning from suspension. As he was trying to keep afloat Grizzles’ sinking ship, his injury weighed heavier for the hopes of the fans.

Similarly in the NFL world, we have Aaron Rodgers, the veteran New York Jets quarterback for New York Jets, who’s had a season devastated by the injury concerns. Earlier suffering from torn Achilles, the 40-year-old too is struggling to keep his fitness intact. The fans were quick to make a comparison between the two stars.

With Ja Morant’s injury, fans club him with Aaron Rodgers

Desmond Bane was a lone fighter for the Grizzlies before Ja Morant returned to craft a masterpiece. He added 34 points, 6 rebounds, and 8 assists as he dashed the hopes of the Pelicans in the final moments. However, the joy was short-lived as he will be unavailable for his team that had an impressive 51-31 record in the previous season. Fans unleashed their creativity as they took note of the developing situation in the ranks of grizzles.

A fan wrote how Rodgers’ season was pretty similar to that of Ja Morant, “Ja Morant’s 2023-2024 NBA season.”

One was too brutal with the comparison. He wrote, “Shameless.”

A person imagined the condition of the fans of Ja Morant. “Ja morant fans right now.”

Another compared Morgan with Jimmy Butler saying how despite a few games won’t be able to return to the hardwood. He wrote, “Jimmy Butler special (played 24/36 games) 😭😭 yo boy got only 5 games till he’s ineligible for anything this season.”

A fan commented how Ja Morant’s departure coupled with Draymond Green’s return made the NBA superior to Hollywood. He wrote, “NBA GOT BETTER STORYLINES THAN WWE 😭Dray coming back, now Ja out.”

The year has been disappointing for the young Grizzles star. Earlier he was charged with hitting a teenager that raised eyebrows in the NBA circles. Known for his striking and playmaking capabilities, Morant was trying to bring energy to his side. With an average of 26.2 points, and 8.2 assists Morant’s fans would only expect him to rest and recover before he strikes with yet another spell of magic he displayed against the Pelicans.
