[Saba Sports News] Ja Morant recently clarified a cryptic post he made on social media. The Memphis Grizzlies star posted “trigger” with a blue heart emoji on Sunday night, causing concern given his past suspensions for flashing a gun online.
The post went viral for the wrong reasons, given Morant’s history. However, on Monday, Morant explained that he had lost someone close to him and “trigger” was the person’s nickname. He followed up with, “rip papa” and “LLTrigger.”
At 24, Morant’s reputation still follows him, especially since a shoulder injury ended his season just nine games after returning from his latest suspension. Despite this, he is working to move forward and recently made a significant off-court business change.
