Dillon Brooks expresses missing Ja Morant after Grizzlies separation

Dillon Brooks, now with the Phoenix Suns, shared that he misses playing with Ja Morant, stating Morant is one of his best friends. Brooks and Morant were teammates on the Memphis Grizzlies for four seasons before Brooks departed in free agency in 2023. Morant was traded to the Portland Trail Blazers this summer, marking the end of their shared tenure in Memphis. Despite their departure from the Grizzlies, they appear to maintain a close relationship. Both players made significant contributions during their time with the team, which included a playoff series victory in 2022, but their respective tenures ended amid controversy.
