Chris Herrington sounds off on three current Grizzlies topics, including the NBA's impending Ja Morant decision.

“First and foremost, we are going to focus on him as a young man developing as a better person and someone who is more responsible, particularly when it comes to guns,” Silver said.

Grizzlies teammate Santi Aldama is also likely to participate for the Spanish national team. 

Jaren Jackson Jr. said Morant is “good” and “people will come back around.”

Let’s take a spin around the NBA and Grizzlies world in the early stages of the offseason.

Incarnate Word coach Shane Heirman has a special relationship with Jaren Jackson Jr.’s family. He believes “this is just the beginning” for the Grizzlies big man. 

As Memphis embarks on the NBA offseason, it does so with once-unexpected notes of both certainty and uncertainty.

The suit comes from a July 2022 incident at the Memphis Grizzlies star’s home in Eads, where a pickup basketball game turned sour and allegedly resulted in an altercation between Morant and his guest, Joshua Holloway.

Incarnate Word coach Shane Heirman’s connection to Jaren Jackson Jr. helped to lure his father, Jaren Jackson Sr., back to his old stomping grounds in San Antonio.

“To me, it didn’t sound like a farewell to social media. It sounded like someone in pain. ... Maybe the better question isn’t what the NBA will hand down, but how the league will help Morant go forward from here.”
