Ja Morant is back to his winning ways, helping his Memphis Grizzlies squad to its current three-game win streak. Off-the-court, the point guard has been battling with leaks of his Nike JA footwear, which he's decided to deal with by leaking his own products.
Recently, the South Carolina-native shared photos of two swoosh-branded sneakers to Instagram Stories. Both pairs were covered in a bold yellow and featured black contrast detailing. The unreleased Air Force 1 Low and JA 2 were also stamped with a message Morant has shared with the NBA press and world-at-large: Let me be Ja.
Without getting into too much detail, the Grizzlies superstar was suspended from the League during the 2023-24 NBA season. All eyes were on him upon his return, to which he simply responded with the sentiment captured on the teased matching duo. It's improbable that the 'Let Me Be Ja' capsule hits retailers at some point, joining Morant's growing catalog of Player-Exclusive (PE) sneakers. If, however, the shoes launch, longtime supporters of the guard will surely buy up inventory to remind Morant of his value.
