Morant was recently flagged and suspended by the Grizzlies indefinitely pending review from the league. This was done due to the guard flashing a firearm on his Instagram Live. As his activity on Instagram went viral, Sharpe took to his show to talk about Morant’s behavior. While echoing what Smith said, Sharpe mentioned how Morant’s words aren’t worth a lot. Sharpe spoke about how he awaits a change in the youngster’s behavior.


I’m surprised I’m shocked I’m disappointed in Ja’s behavior.
