Tee Morant, father of star point guard Ja Morant, explained that he and Shannon Sharpe “are good” after the two were at the center of a fracas during Friday night’s game between the Grizzlies and the Lakers in Los Angeles.
The stunning scene took place at the end of the second quarter at Crypto.com Arena when Sharpe, Tee Morant and a number of Memphis players got into a heated verbal confrontation that resulted in them needing to be separated by security and referees. It remains unclear what kicked off the shouting match but video showed Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks and center Stephen Adams yelling in Sharpe’s direction before being joined by Ja Morant and eventually, Ja’s father.
