Pro athletes on social media have often been targeted by hackers and Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant just became one. Morant recently just exposed an alleged hacker who was trying to get likes for a free courtside ticket.

It doesn't seem Morant is bothered by any of it at all, though. He's also just lucky that it was just a pretty harmless hack job. Nevertheless, he needs to be more careful with his social media accounts. No person, especially famous ones, would like to find himself/herself in some hot water over some confidential details that got spilled online by a hacker. The high-flying Morant has a lesson to learn from this.

And if that hacker was simply trying to get into Morant's head and mess up with his play this season, he/she needs to try harder.

Morant has been sensational for the Grizzlies this season. He is leading Memphis with averages of 27.5 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 6.7 assists per game. He is just 22, but already has put himself in MVP conversations. He might not win that award this season, but based on his present form and considering his ceiling, he's someone that looks like a good bet to become an MVP in the future.
