Earlier in the day, Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant caught significant heat from his fans after he was seen downing a bottle of tequila on a private plane on an Instagram livestream. Many fans scolded Morant and told him to stay away from drinking. Some even berated Morant from drinking in public.

Morant would send out another tweet, clapping back at the haters who were getting mad at the Grizzlies star.

Morant was seen on a family member's Instagram livestream. There, the Grizzlies star was seen drinking from a bottle with his father and other family, generally having a great time en route to the All-Star Game. While it seemed innocuous at first, a few angry Twitter users came to Morant's tweet and gave the All-Star a hard time.

This being Ja Morant's first All-Star selection of his career, I think most Grizzlies fans would be fine with their star drinking. The former second-overall pick has been absolutely electric, posting averages of 26.8 points, 6.9 assists, and 5.9 rebounds. His exploits have boosted Memphis to the third spot in the top-heavy Western Conference with a 41 – 19 record.

Besides, Morant is a grown man who is able to decided on what he wants to do. Fans can be concerned for the Grizzlies star's health, but at the end of the day, no fan can dictate what any player should do. If Morant feels like drinking a whole damn bottle of tequila, he shouldn't face any backlash for it.

That being said… Morant is lucky that the All-Star Game won't be played tomorrow, since he'll be nursing a bad hangover the way he drank that bottle.
