Lil Wayne Explains Why It's Wrong To Come Down On Ja Morant

There's been a lot of talk about the Memphis Grizzlies' Ja Morant being seen with a gun for the second time.

He's since been suspended from all team activities. Plus, his Ja 1 sneakers have been yanked from certain stores, as well as Nike's website.

Lil Wayne is one of the latest to speak on the hoop star and said people should be cutting him some slack since he's from Dalzell, South Carolina.

"Do y’all know that boy? ‘Cause I don’t,” said Tunechi. “I know him from dunking and jumping, and I only started knowing him when I started paying attention to him in his last year of college. He come from like a town with 3,000 people. Like, what? What y’all expect? Y’all gave him $200 million."

He continued. “I just said, a town with 3,000 people. You expect him to be responsible? Now we tripping. That’s magic. ‘Cause I could tell you now, I come from a real well-raised, beautiful mother, nice, you know what I mean? My mama would bust her ass to make sure everything around me was nice, and I still was a knucklehead. I shot myself ... And that young man, I could imagine if I came from a f*cking place with 3,000 people and I became who I am.”

Are you in agreement with Wayne?
