Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant took to social media to reaffirm his commitment to Memphis despite trade rumors.

Ja Morant is not enjoying the recent discourse about the city of Memphis. Shortly after Stephen A. Smith said NBA players don't want to live in Memphis because it's not "the safest environment," Morant sent a post that appears to criticize ESPN for talking about the Grizzlies and their city instead of the ongoing NBA Finals between the Indiana Pacers and Oklahoma City Thunder.

Smith made some very disparaging comments about the city of Memphis and the Memphis Grizzlies on First Take, and Ja Morant fired back on X.
