Why Did Shannon Sharpe Try to Fight Tee Morant and Steven Adams? Lebron Reacts

The NBA was rocked with a shocking fight between NFL Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe, Ja Morant’s father Tee Morant, and Steven Adams during the Friday night matchup between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Grizzlies. There has been much speculation has to what set off this surprising string of events.

Why Did Shannon Sharpe Want to Fight Tee Morant and Steven Adams?

The altercation allegedly began to brew when Sharpe exchanged words with Grizzlies guard Dillon Brooks after he was defending LeBron James during a play in front of Sharpe’s seat at the end of the second quarter. Sharpe told Brooks that he was too small to guard James, and Brooks responded with an expletive. This later prompted Ja Morant and Steven Adams to come out of nowhere, and talk to Sharpe. Tee Morant then got involved, and both were separated by game officials and the arena’s security. After the Game Dillon Brooks seemingly took a shot at Lebron saying, “He doesn’t want to go left. I just make him go left all game. Then he would settle or pass the ball”.

The altercation shocked the basketball world, and left many people wondering what caused it. It is believed that the fight was sparked by Sharpe’s words, as he was seen passionately defending LeBron James. Some believe that Sharpe’s words were taken too seriously, as the Grizzlies did not take kindly to the slight on their player. It is also possible that Steven Adams, Ja Morant, and his father were trying to protect Brooks, as he is an important part of their team. Maybe there was a completely different factor at the play. The concrete truth is a bit cloudy at the moment.
