VIDEO: Andre Iguodala Gives Classy Response to Comments From Dillon Brooks and Ja Morant
By Mark Powell
Andre Iguodala's tenure with the Memphis Grizzlies was nonexistent, and that's being kind. Iggy had no intention of ever suiting up for the Grizz, who most pundits assumed were in rebuild mode entering the season. Fast forward to February, and the Grizzlies are square in the Western Conference playoff race. While Iguodala has finally moved on to the Miami Heat thanks to a NBA Trade Deadline deal, the veteran guard was asked about some curious comments from Brooks and Morant in his return to Golden State.
Nothing but class from Iguodala, who simply stated that he supports young players in the Association, and hopes Morant and Brooks focus on themselves and their postseason aspirations rather than his intentions.
Morant is one of the best young guards in the game, and rather than get on the Murray State product's bad side, Iguodala is showering him with compliments.
Well played, from a true ambassador of the game.
