Ja Morant was very excited when he found out he will be teammates with multiple time NBA champion Andre Iguodala.

However, Iguodala never played for the Memphis Grizzlies and was traded to the Miami Heat in February.

“Coming in, when they said he was going to be on our roster, I was very excited having a vet like that in the locker room with us.

Me coming in that first year, I was looking forward to learning some stuff from him and he was saying he wasn’t going to play with us or whatever happened.

Like you said it’s a business, all different stuff going around, somebody said he said we weren’t good enough so in my head I was like it is what it is,” Morant said on the latest episode of the All The Smoke podcast with Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson.
