Dillon Brooks did not have the best performance in the Memphis Grizzlies' Game 4 loss to the Golden State Warriors. But Ja Morant doesn't think he deserves all the social media slander.

 

One video in particular from a Grizzlies analysis Twitter account highlighted all the miscues and misfires from Dillon Brooks in Game 4. Safe to say there were quite a lot.

One man who didn't appreciate such broadcasting of Dillon Brooks' errors was the Grizzlies franchise player himself, Ja Morant. The All-Star guard, who sat out Game 4 with injury, clapped back at the video and asked for the page to delete it.

“Delete this dawg. Y'all wilding,” said the Grizzlies star.

Morant also seconded the comments of Grizzlies teammate Kyle Anderson, who spoke candidly on why the team remains full behind Dillon Brooks despite his rough outing in Game 4.

“You can’t be mad at him when the shots don’t fall because when they do fall, we are a really good team,” said tge Grizzlies veteran on Dillon Brook's bad game.

Ja Morant also retweeted one fan's response as to why the page put Dillon Brooks on blast. While they claimed it was for some tough love, the Grizzlies fan – and Morant himself – aren't buying it.

Dillon Brooks finished with just 12 points on a miserable 5-for-19 shooting clip to go along with four turnovers against the Warriors in Game 4. He also made just two of his nine attempts from distance.While those totals would constitute a bad game by any measure, they're not particularly abhorrent to warrant what Morant feels is a public shaming.
