After $39,000,000 Hit to His Paycheck, Ja Morant Gets a Stern Lesson From Shaquille O’Neal

Ja Morant once reached the pinnacle of his basketball career. He developed himself into one of the top guards for the Memphis Grizzlies. Fans became spectators thanks to his amazing athleticism and creativity on the court. However, his own off-court antics would get him into trouble in the first few days of March. The NBA fined him almost $39 million and suspended him for eight games after he flashed a gun at a Denver bar. Not only that, but he has returned to the same location months later. Shaquille O'Neal, a legend in the NBA, gave him some wise words on the shortness of life.

Shaquille O’Neal gives Ja Morant a reality check

The two-time All-Star stepped right into a burning pit once again repeating a similar mistake from March. NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said Morant could meet a much heavier penalty this time, but that’s not all. Several brands have tie-ups with the Grizzlies star. And according to Shaquille O’Neal, the recent chapter might see him lose the priced deals.

What Shaq said 

“He’s going to get suspended. This may jeopardize the Nike deals and may jeopardize the power pay deal. Might not get those opportunities back,” Shaquille O’Neal said about the effect of Morant’s actions.
