In the video, Reese and Morant were seen having fun and dancing to “The Griddy,” a dance move made famous by Minnesota Vikings receiver Justin Jefferson and Cincinnati Bengals receiver Ja’Marr Chase during the Tigers’ national championship football season in 2019.
How are fans reacting to the video of Ja Morant?
The video has attracted attention from the basketball community, with many sharing their opinions on social media.
One fan wrote that it is impossible for Morant to stay away from controversy for even a day. Another fan found it cringe and one said that the two most hated basketball players are dancing together.
Ja Morant stays out of controversy for 24 hr challenge: impossible

While Morant has faced criticism for his conduct off the court such as the controversial Instagram live, Reese has also received backlash for her behavior on the court despite leading her team to a National Championship victory. However, both players appear unbothered by the negative attention and seem to be enjoying each other’s company.
Despite the criticism, it seems that Reese and Morant are unapologetic and determined to continue celebrating their victories in their own way. As Morant prepares for the NBA playoffs starting on April 15th, both players will likely continue to face scrutiny from the media and fans alike.
This also proves that Morant’s talents go beyond basketball, and his charismatic personality and showmanship have endeared him to fans all over the world. As he continues to dominate the court and bring joy to his fans, we wonder what next move Morant will make in the future.
