JA Morant takes the whole responsibility for the loss against the 76ers
In the last eight seconds of the fourth quarter, Morant tried to shoot a floater and was fouled by Andre Drummond and got a chance to attempt the free throws but he missed to convert them into points because of which the game went into overtime and they lost the game in OT.
In the post-game interview, JA Morant took the blame for the loss and he felt ashamed of missing those free throws. He said, “If there’s anybody you want to be mad at, it can be me. Nine turnovers, missed some big free throws, didn’t make a three. If there’s anybody to be mad at -pick me.”
The All-star might have not been able to win the game for the team but he sure put the show which entertained the whole NBA universe.
