ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith has a message for Ja Morant after the Memphis Grizzlies guard was suspended for flashing at gun at a strip club in an Instagram Live video early Saturday morning.
Smith closely covered Allen Iverson’s time with the Philadelphia 76ers in the early 2000s, and during the Sixers-Bucks pregame show Saturday, Smith compared Morant’s recent troubles to those of Iverson’s once upon a time.
“You are a superstar. You are 23 years old. You got a deal that kicks in next year that could exceed $231 million over the next five years, and on this show, on national television, there’s you associated with police,” Smith said. “Think about that for a second and then ask yourself, ‘Is it really, really worth it?’ You know the answer to that, bro. It’s not worth it.”

You represent your family. You represent your city. You got to be mindful of all of that. It’s never off.”, who has become one of the faces of their brand from a basketball standpoint.
