Ja Morant calls out ESPN in funny drunk Instagram video

Ja Morant talks

Ja Morant is a whole and entire mood heading into All-Star Weekend.

The Memphis Grizzlies guard went live on Instagram Friday while in Cleveland for this year’s All-Star festivities. Morant was living it up in a party limo, rapping along to the music and doing swigs of what appeared to be tequila. He also took a hilarious shot at ESPN during the live broadcast.

“ESPN … y’all need to activate more of our games,” said Morant.

You can see the funny video here (at the 2:30 mark), but beware of some explicit language and lyrics throughout.

Morant will likely be partying all weekend. He also went live on Instagram during the flight to Cleveland, drinking more tequila straight from the bottle and dancing with stacks of money. Take a look (but once again beware of the bad language).

It is Morant’s first career All-Star appearance (he will be starting for Team Durant on Sunday), and he is definitely making the most out of it. As for the ESPN call-out, it is part of an established beef Morant has with the network for not showing the 41-19 Grizzlies on national TV more often this season.
