Ja Morant has again drawn widespread attention as questions continue to surround his future with the Memphis Grizzlies amid trade speculation. The latest focus intensified after a video showed the All-Star guard engaged in a heated on-court exchange with teammate Vince Williams Jr. during a recent team practice.

In the clip, Morant was seen jawing with Williams Jr. for nearly a minute before a member of the Memphis coaching staff stepped in to de-escalate the situation. The footage quickly spread across social media, fueling debate about team chemistry, according to footage credited to Getty Images via AFP/Scanpix.
The situation gained further traction after a popular lip-reading account on X (formerly Twitter) shared a video claiming to decode Morant’s words during the argument. The post added fresh speculation around the incident and intensified scrutiny on Morant’s relationship with his teammates, though the Grizzlies have not publicly commented on the exchange.
Morant did not suit up for Memphis in their game against the Orlando Magic, as he continues to recover from a right calf contusion. The injury marked his second consecutive missed game, limiting him to just 18 appearances this season.
According to team statistics, Morant is averaging 19.0 points per game this year while shooting a career-low 40.1 percent from the field, with injuries significantly disrupting his season.
