ESPN Apologizes For Running Fake Ja Morant Quote About Michael Jordan


On Monday, ESPN ran a segment of This Just In with David Jacoby and Kendrick Perkins about Ja Morant. They broke down a quote that went viral from Morant's interview with Taylor Rooks of Bleacher Report, when Morant said he'd cook 1-on-1. However, ESPN went further and used a fake Morant quote about how Jordan is just like other superstars. (The Big Lead)
