Grizzlies Urged Ja Morant to Play Against Thunder Before Fully Recovering?

When you find out Ja Morant won’t be hitting the court and you’re the one stepping into the spotlight, do you shift gears mentally knowing your game time’s about to go up? Scotty Pippen Jr. shares, “I guess I do get a bit more aggressive in those situations, but honestly, I approach every game with the same attitude. I aim to deliver whatever the team requires from me. With Ja sidelined, I understand we’re missing a crucial element, so I don’t just focus on filling that gap—I strive to do everything within my power to help the team secure a win.” This insight comes from a chat with HoopsHype on March 25, 2025.
