Ja Morant’s old IG account spotted with ironic images, leaving fans in absolute frenzy

Memphis Grizzlies basketball star Ja Morant has caused a stir on social media after his old Instagram account resurfaced, revealing some unexpected and ironic images.

The  Memphis Grizzlies guard recently got suspended by the NBA for eight games without pay due to holding a firearm in an intoxicated state during his Instagram live while visiting a Denver area nightclub.

Following the initial declaration of his suspension, Morant expressed remorse for the controversial activity. He is anticipated to join the squad for the March 20 game against the Dallas Mavericks.

The old Instagram selfies of Ja Morant got viral.

A user just discovered the old Instagram account of Ja Morant from ten years ago. His previous Instagram handle is @soexclusive12_. Surprisingly, the account has a few selfies of the teen Morant with interesting captions, driving fans into a state of frenzy. 

Morant seems to quote rap lyrics in most of the pictures.

However, many fans are also tweeting in favor of the Memphis Grizzlies star.

A fan tweeted claiming Morant’s old picture got viral because the media hates successful black men.

A fan was complaining about bringing up Morant’s old IG account, saying it was the reason they keep their children away from social platforms.

A fan expressed outrage by asking all to go viral other celebrity’s posts just like they did with Morants.

With an average of 27.1 points, 8.2 assists, and 6.0 rebounds per game, the two-time All-Star had one of his best seasons ever this past season. Memphis has maintained their No. 2 seed in the West Conference, while Morant has been absent thanks to a 3-2 record. His return will be crucial for the team battling for playoff positioning as it looks to win a title this season.

Morant has not yet responded to the resurfaced IG photos.
