  • Teniya Morant bears a striking resemblance to her older brother Ja Morant, star guard for the Memphis Grizzlies. Aside from that, the feisty hooper has a game and a name of her own. Niya takes us through her training, her goals as she looks onto college ball and what separates her from one her biggest fans in Ja. She's not Ja Morant's little sister, she's just Niya.

Lets say she gets offers, she’s better suited for low D1, possibly D2/3 so her getting exposure would be difficult. There’s only so many spots available for rookies in the W so she probably won’t get drafted. Overseas with its many options would make more sense. There are many low level D1 and D2 players who go overseas, not necessarily a country’s top league but she could end up in 2nd or 3rd division.

    Folks get mad at these flamboyant father's like the Ball's dad, Morants dad, etc but what's lost is they are still married to their mothers and they were always with their children and their children are productive, respectful members of society that have never been in troubles. And their kids are family oriented.

      There is nothing flamboyant about Mr. Morant, he should never be compared to the Ball's. Mr. Ball is talking loud and saying nothing and love to showboat and trying to live his life through his kids. Mr. Morant is humble and low key.
