Kyrie Irving suggests that Ja Morant’s main challenges stem from a lack of essential family time, which affects his sense of security. Irving acknowledges that not everyone is fortunate enough to have the supportive upbringing he’s had. Morant’s struggles, according to Irving, may be exacerbated by his choice of companions, indicating a potential absence of positive family influence. While Irving’s intention may not have been to directly criticize Morant’s parents, his remarks underscore the importance of familial support in navigating life’s challenges.

Everything took place during one of Kyrie Irving’s sometimes scheduled Instagram live feeds. He made the decision to speak up regarding Ja Morant’s predicament once it was brought up in the comments. Regarding the substance of his remarks, we’ll let you choose whether or not you agree with Irving’s viewpoint. We do emphasize that not everyone is as fortunate as Kyrie to have a loving family, but in his words, “A lot of us require nurturing… regardless of race, ethnicity, or religion. We must remove the barrier of technology and make family time commonplace. Give up allowing technology to rule your f*cking thoughts. Give up allowing this shit to accomplish that. Get outside in the light and center yourself. Study the true meaning of tranquility of mind and offer prayers to God.”
