Published 03/05/2023, 3:00 PM EST

In the past few months, Ja Morant has emerged as one of the most polarizing stars in the league. Since last year’s playoffs, the Memphis Grizzlies star has constantly been making the headlines, but for all the wrong reasons. In fact, it appears the 23-year-old’s stardom on the basketball court has taken a back seat to his off-court issues. Disturbing stories involving Morant have recently surfaced online, leaving most of the NBA world in utter disbelief. However, amid all the rampant speculations, things got worse when the 2019-20 Rookie of the Year made a major social media blunder.

In a recent Instagram Live video, Morant was spotted brandishing a firearm. Soon after, the young guard issued a humbling apology and went on a social media hiatus. However, the damage was already done. Moreover, amid all the chaos, an eminent media head came out with a striking revelation about the NBA’s ‘FBI’ connections, which has left fans in shambles.

Over his storied career spanning decades, Stephen A. Smith has extensively covered athletes like Allen Iverson, Gilbert Arenas, Le’veon Bell, and many others. The common theme binding the above sports names is their polarizing status on the back of their borderline and in some cases, actual criminal acts.

Likewise, ESPN’s First Take host didn’t hesitate to speak his mind on the Ja Morant situation. In fact, Smith issued a bold warning to Morant’s camp through a striking revelation about the NBA’s operations.

Falling back on his years of NBA coverage experience, the 55-year-old unveiled that the NBA has serious ties with off-duty police officers and the FBI. Moreover, he also harped on how the league office always keeps tabs on its players, almost like a stalker.

In an NBA countdown segment at ESPN, Smith said, “The NBA has off-duty police officers, they’ve got connections with the FBI, they’ve got connections with everybody.”

“The NBA knows what you’re doing. They know who you doing it with, they know where you are, they know how you’re conducting yourself at all times. Don’t think they’re not watching. They’re always watching,” he added.
