Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving has been in a fair share of controversies. He has now watched Ja Morant of the Memphis Grizzlies get into a controversy of his own. While the Mavericks and Grizzles might be Western Conference rivals, Irving isn’t quick to just dismiss Morant.

Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving has been in a fair share of controversies. He has now watched Ja Morant of the Memphis Grizzlies get into a controversy of his own. While the Mavericks and Grizzles might be Western Conference rivals, Irving isn’t quick to just dismiss Morant.

Kyrie Irving understands that what Ja Morant did wasn’t acceptable. However, he doesn’t accept the world flaming the Grizzles’ guard over it. Because of his status as an athlete, Morant’s legal issues are put on a higher pedestal.

Irving thinks that’s unfair and that Morant should be treated no differently in terms of respect. Still, Morant’s mess up means it’ll be some time before he faces Irving on the court again.
