Fan Gets Response From Ja Morant After Crying About Wanting to Meet Him Following Wisdom Tooth Surgery
By Dylan McCaffrey
We all want to meet our favorite NBA players. For people in Memphis, star rookie point guard Ja Morant is the hero of Grind City, so you can understand why this superfan who was a little woozy after wisdom tooth surgery was emotional when talking about his favorite player. What's even better than the video? The fact that Morant actually reached out to him!
Morant took the opportunity to offer him a chance to see a Grizzlies game, so this fan now has something to really "be happy" about.
Morant and the Grizzlies have a reason to be happy too. The team is 28-26, sitting comfortably in the eighth seed, four games ahead of the ninth-place Trail Blazers. As for Morant, he's had the kind of year that rarely comes for rookie point guards.
Already one of the most clutch players in the NBA, his explosiveness and fearless attitude have thrust him into the spotlight.
Morant is in the lead to win Rookie of the Year by far and it's safe to say this fan will be elated if the Grizz make the playoffs and his favorite player gets recognized for it.
