Mad respect to Taylor Rooks. Great interviewer. Really enjoyed this interview. Also, Ja seems like a great dude! Really enjoyed watching him grow in front of us
I love this young man . His parents did an awesome job with him . Very respectful. Hard worker . Great father . I’m proud to say his plays for my hometown. Big M!!!
Taylor Rooks, thank you for this interview! I am a huge Ja Morant fan!! To both of you, keep doing well and continue to be confident in your profession. People will continue to be negative, but there are many people who love and appreciate your craft, gift, and positive energy. There's negativity on every level, in every profession, on every stage, and especially when you're confident and happy. Keep your focus because you have much to give! Blessings to all of you 🙏🧡🏀🧡
One of the most entertaining players to watching the NBA. His energy is electric on the court. Its contagious to all around him. Wishing he accomplishes all of his goals. Oh, and a Slam Dunk Trophy would be great too!!
Ja Morant Dad funny as Hell. He roasted me for having a Golden State Warriors Shirt on in Las Vegas. * boy take that garbage shirt off- Big Morant lmao
I love this dude! My favorite player in the league…that’s not on my favorite team (Lakers). Also, Taylor…your interviews are always amazing - you are dope.
It's funny how ja's favorite player is Russell Westbrook and everybody fucking hates him but everybody loves ja ik their two different people but ja model his game after Russ
Seeing you in this light I miss this Ja. I know the fame & the crew got to you. Get right Ja, this felt like a genuine true to you interview. Good luck in counseling.
@@zumptt Yeah, but they posted the timestamp 6 hours ago and I posted this comment 7 hours ago, that means they didn’t had the timestamp by the time I posted the comment but you’re welcome :)
One of my top 5 NBA guards J Morant who is a ALL STAR in my eyes and I beleive he will play on the USA Olympic and be a Hall Famer my brother stay humble and God bless
Taylor: are you down you didn’t make the usa team Ja: nah all in Gods time, I’ll just stay ready. You SO right Ja…keep the faith and keep spreading the love! Bless you young man AND your fam!
Brooo we need him in the dunk contest he can do so much crazy dunkkkss he will be so creative he will probably jump over someone my man almost jumped over Kevin love and my man will do any dunk
Ja Morant is one of my top 3 players...he's incredibly gifted 🙌 and exciting 2 watch!...he's a humble dude a great guy much success 💯🙌🙏 and blessings 🤲😇 much love❤🖐 gotta be a top 5 - 10 player in the game today💯🖐 facts💯
Unfairly I had judged this kid as a brat with an ego. After watching this I understand it's just a persona for the court and that he's a kind and humble guy.
I compared him to AI his rookie year and got crucified for it, glad to see I didn't take the heat in vain. Ja making me look like a prophet at this point.
Everyone in the league needs to watch out for Ja Morant Like for real this kid is unreal and he is already making himself to be a allstar and a Mvp Type of player and he His Is Still very Young In His NBA career I'm A Laker fan and Kobe Bryant Fan But Yeah Ja He Is Different And he Needs to be in the dunk Contest in the very near future
Dunks in game time is different than when preparing for dunks in a dunking contest. I don’t blame him for not wanting to compete in them. Actually game time dunks are better because of the opposing players trying to defend a basket, and based on the position of the defender trying to defend makes a dunk spectacular. Contests are creative art to see who can create the best mini movie.
He is better than both right now as far as his all around game and talent. No 1 will agree because it's his 2nd yr. Time will prove he is the better player in the future .

_all love to Ja & the Grizzlies for their playoff’s run…!!! I love the way you dunk i saw young D-Rose on he’s prime just be careful young blood!!!👏🥇🤳
Ja Morant seems like a super good dude. I wish him all the success in the world.
He gives you the vibe that you're there experiencing everything he does

He just want the cheeks
@DHuntBeats he's married and has kids I'm pretty sure, so I doubt it
She’s a really good interviewer

Beautiful too
shes trying to get his pay check dont lie
Ja seems like the most chill nd humble dudes to be around. Wish him the best success in his career and hopefully he gets that dunk on Lebron
Facts
on God
Humble? What you smoking! He’s anything but humble.
I like that he's actually answering the Qs
I like Taylor. She did a good job of making it more of a convo than an interview
Mad respect to Taylor Rooks. Great interviewer. Really enjoyed this interview.
Also, Ja seems like a great dude! Really enjoyed watching him grow in front of us
She's the one that made me a Ja Morant fan with that pre-Draft interview. I love them! My favourite people to follow on Twitter.
So glad the Grizzlies were lucky enough to draft this guy
Hope he stay in Memphis like 4 more yrs maybe a championship he fearless...I can see him in Miami nxt
@@Skyy67 that’d be crazzyyyy if he went to Miami 👀 Memphis better hope they make the playoffs at least this season to keep him happy.

Idk about that
I love the interviewer, she is not the typical one that interrupts everything and has no expressions. She does look like she's enjoying the moment
She's fake as hell don't be fooled
These two have the best chemistry I've ever seen
Glad to see someone out of sumter do big things, keep pushing young king!
803 stand up
He seems to be a well grounded and focused young man. I wish him much success in the league and life
Love when a star (and yes he's a star at this point) is humble like this. Hella refreshing. But dude is a straight DOG on the court
I can't wait until he finally makes the all-star team. He's going to be trying to dunk on everybody lol
I mean he wasn’t really a star until college which usually means a players more humble then the ones who’ve been top ranked recruits since 8th grade
He's a monster on the hardwood and he has yet to show the full extent of his talent
Great interviewer. Natural. Relatable. Human. Unlike these other reporters

WE NEED HIM AND ZION IN THE DUNK CONTEST!
Hoping they team up in the long run before their career ends
Zion will soon be too injured and too fat to even be in the nba.
Hell we needed them on TEAM USA. Wouldn’t have lost a game.
Greatest dunk contest of all time!!!
Nah we don't

JA vs Zion in the dunk contest is must see TV. We already saw them fight for ROY, we need it.
She hype on him 🤣
Team Ja, cool dude!!
Ja is the truth and I think a star is someone the fans pay to see and a superstar is someone the fans and the players would pay to see.
Unfairly I had judged this kid as a brat with an ego. After watching this I understand it's just a persona for the court and that he's a kind and humble guy.
I agree with former players/dunkers being judges
What a humble kid
No cap bro they needa put up 5 million put Lavine, victor, ja, Zion, Gordon nd Yu gotta put the two defending champs in dere
Swap Victor with derrick Jones Jr.
Take out victor and put in Derrick Jones Jr.
@@martezhodges3418 I said you gotta put the two defending champs in bro did you read it
He looked like Affiong "Aff" Harris aka Big Sora from Rdcworld1
Hope Ja gets back to normal and is even better
I compared him to AI his rookie year and got crucified for it, glad to see I didn't take the heat in vain. Ja making me look like a prophet at this point.
I respect ja I always felt he was a good person and it just is nice to see him interact with someone
Man ja is my favourite all time 🛸 bro is different MBNO
Probably one of my favorite players
It was a good interview but I bet Ja thinking one thing lets go get drinks after this interview
This young man has a great attitude he is very mature for 22 years old
When Nike gone give my guy Ja his own signature sneaker he been ballin out.
A lot of people on the internet are the type to switch sides constantly depending on who's winning
Repent of all your sins to ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST AMEN
Ja is a beast fa show

His raw athleticism remind me of Westbrook and pre injury drose. He might be able to be better than both too
