Ja Morant Returns, Dame Lillard Says NBA Needs Mentors
Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant is back from his eight-game suspension and a stint in counseling stemming from some troubling off-court behavior. Hosts Michael Barr and Scarlet Fu talk with the Executive Director of the National Basketball Players Association, Tamika Tremaglio, about the ripple effects of Morant's actions, and what the NBPA is doing to help young players avoid similar pitfalls. They also discuss recent comments from Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard about the new generation of players being entitled, and look ahead to CBA negotiations with the league.
