The Grizzlies failed to hold the Lakers in the last round of the NBA, and Taylor Jenkins opened the game about the return of Ja Morant to the team

Ja Morant It was an absence felt by Grizzlies in defeat to lakers. The two teams faced each other last Tuesday, the 7th, and the Los Angeles team won with a 112-103 victory. Anthony Davis, who didn’t give a break to rivals, added 30 points, 22 rebounds and was the big name of the confrontation. However, in addition to the negative result, what most affected everyone in Memphis was the second game without its main player.

Taylor Jenkins, after the loss to the Lakers, did not want to give too many details about the return of Ja Morant. Even so, the coach did not hide his frustration at not being able to count on the main athlete in the squad. Asked about the star’s return, he chose not to give a specific deadline, as the player is being investigated in relation to a serious matter that goes beyond the NBA courts.

We are in contact with him every day. He’s still a big part of what we do. As I said the other day, we love him. We want the best for him. We support you. … It’s a healing process, so if everyone expects something to change overnight, we have to (do) due diligence and be respectful about it.“, explained the coach of the Grizzlies.

According to Taylor Jenkins, it is impossible to give a deadline for a punishment. The moment for Ja Morant is not to return to the courts, but to reflect on his actions and their consequences: “We’re talking about Ja being in a better place personally as well as professionally so putting a timeline on that is disrespectful in my opinion.”.
