このコンテンツについて
Ja Morant steps into the 2025-26 NBA season with all eyes on him and the Grizzlies, entering what general manager Zach Kleiman publicly called a make-or-break year. At last Monday’s Memphis media day, Morant spoke with notable energy about embracing the “fast, organized, effort-driven” style of new head coach Tuomas Iisalo, openly saying, “I love it. It fits me.” Video from his interview on the NBA’s official YouTube channel shows Morant determined and focused, reflecting on lessons learned from the physical and emotional hurdles of the past two years, when he played only 56 percent of Memphis’ games due to injuries and league suspension. According to the Tri-State Defender, this offseason was different: Morant ran a global promotional tour with Nike through China, Japan, and the Philippines, dropping fresh colorways for his signature sneaker line while, back home, putting in significant gym time to gear up for a full campaign.
Social media, as ever, has been buzzing with Ja-centric talk. This past week, threads erupted with fans hyping the new “JaMorant 3 Hustle Flow” shoes on display and debating whether Morant’s kicks really are the most coveted in basketball. Former NBA pro Brandon Jennings even weighed in, claiming people need to “rank the designers every year,” a dig that quickly went semi-viral. Meanwhile, Morant’s confidence drew national attention when he declared his shoe the “#1 basketball shoe in the world,” a statement that split fans but dominated sneakerhead communities.
Back on the court, Ja sparked new headlines by reacting to the improved shooting of Lakers’ stars, telling NBA Analysis that it elevates the West’s competitive energy and gives him more motivation to push his own perimeter game. He showed that resolve at a widely covered Grizzlies open practice, where, in a moment caught by the Daily Memphian, he led a drill and then missed a dunk—only to bounce back and laugh it off with the rookies, winning over the crowd and reminding everyone he’s still the team’s emotional core.
Businesswise, Morant’s role grows beyond just highlight reels. The recent trade of Desmond Bane means the team will lean even more heavily on his leadership and scoring. He’s also reportedly preparing to negotiate his next contract without an agent, a rare move for a player of his stature and possibly a signal of his growing business confidence. The city of Memphis, still stung from last season’s abrupt downturn, is craving a deep playoff run. The Grizzlies will open their season later this month again at home versus New Orleans, as the rest of the roster tries to shake off a fresh round of injuries.
That wraps up this week’s flash on Ja Morant—make sure to subscribe, so you never miss an update on one of the NBA’s most electrifying talents, and don’t forget to search the term Biography Flash for more great biographies. Thanks for listening!
