Tony Allen is familiar with the issues and pressure that Grizzlies star Ja Morant is currently facing after his latest off-court incident.
One week ago, Morant appeared to display a gun during an Instagram live video and is currently suspended from team activities pending the NBA’s investigation. Morant’s recent incident comes after he served an eight-game suspension in March when an Instagram Live video showed Morant flashing a gun inside a Colorado nightclub.
Allen, known as the “The Grindfather” for his elite defensive skills, played an integral part in the Grizzlies “Grit and Grind” era from 2010 to ’17. In a recent appearance on Kevin Garnett’s KG Certified podcast, Allen shared his advice on why Morant’s need for a gun should not be taking lightly.
