By this point, who still cares, beyond how it affects the playoffs? Yeah, it was a bad look. We'll see if he's learned anything soon enough. The rest of the hubbub is just sound and fury, seems to me.
LOL, from the Athletic/Amick today: Memphis, despite owning the third-best record in the West, is a dismal 13-22 on the road, which numerous team insiders have blamed on a lack of maturity and focus emanating from Morant — who otherwise is averaging 27.1 points and a career-best 8.2 assists in an All-Star season. There have even been travel measures taken to curtail nightlife habits this season, with the Grizzlies leaving more road cities (especially the glitzier ones, like Miami) immediately after the game instead of staying overnight. Additional accountability measures may follow.
