There is one thing we’ve learned about Memphis Grizzlies rookie sensation Ja Morant: he has no fear. None whatsoever.
The point guard’s confidence is overflowing — remember when he yelled at James Harden last month after hitting a shot in his face? — and he backs it up with his incredible play.
Now, he’s going toe-to-toe with Steph Curry over social media.
The background: on Monday, Morant’s teammate Dillon Brooks said of the holding out Andre Iguodala that he “can’t wait til we find a way to trade (Iguodala) so we can play him and show him really what Memphis is about.”
Morant used an emoji to show he agreed:
