Tee Morant Takes Responsibility For Ja Morant's Fall From Grace

Last night, Ja Morant played for the first time since picking up an eight-game suspension for waving a gun at a strip club.

It was the latest in a long line of questionable behavior from the Memphis Grizzlies' young star.

Ja's dad Tee is a staple at all of Ja's games and is now taking heat for poor parenting.

He addressed that in a chat with The Athletic.

“They were rough, bruh. Rough. Reading bad things about my son and (people) judging him off of things that he really doesn’t believe in. It’s so crazy that people love to throw the stone but wouldn’t want the stone thrown at their kid. I felt totally responsible. Ja’s gonna show the world who he is, and I’m excited about that," Tee told The Athletic. "“I blame myself. I blame myself. Because that’s my son. When I say I will die for my kids, I will die for my kids. Now has the world thought about that or thought like that? Anything my kid does, I’m going to blame myself.”

Should Tee take that blame?
