Former NBA star Shaquille O'Neal has minced no words while critisising Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant for his latest off-court trouble-making IG live video incident.
"You got to have enough common sense to know that wasn't going to go how you wanted it to go," O'Neal said on Tuesday during 'NBA on TNT.'
"You're not a rapper. You're an NBA player," he added and said Morant "put himself in this position."
The Grizzlies star, is on a break after his video outside a Denver bar showing him holding a gun went viral. The NBA is probing the matter currently and so is Colorado police for any potential breaking of law.
Morant, in an statement, had apologised for his actions and said he'll be taking some time away. The Grizzlies, meanwhile, suspended him for two games initially but there's no timeline on his return as of now.
"We have to stop putting ourselves in positions to where they can take away what we've worked so hard to get."
