Ja Morant Makes Announcement on NBA Future After Desmond Bane Trade originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

Ja Morant #12 of the Memphis Grizzlies brings the ball up court in the first quarter against the Oklahoma City Thunder during Game One of the Western Conference First Round NBA Playoffs at Paycom Center... Morant and the Grizzlies have been at the forefront of the offseason so far, as his future and the team's future remain in limbo.

On Tuesday, Morant himself took to X with a strong message as his name swirled in trade discussions: The 901 Morant referred to is the area code for the city of Memphis, and it's quite the statement from the Grizzlies star to make publicly.
