On Wednesday, February 10th, the Memphis Police Department conducted a welfare check on NBA star Ja Morant after a cryptic social media post raised concerns for his safety. The post, which was shared on Morant’s Instagram account, simply said “I’m done”.
The Memphis Police Department was alerted to the post and quickly dispatched officers to Morant’s home. After arriving at the residence, the officers were able to confirm that Morant was “fine” and that there was no cause for alarm.
Morant’s agent, Rich Paul, later released a statement confirming that the post was not indicative of any danger and that Morant was “in good spirits”. Paul also thanked the Memphis Police Department for their swift response and for taking the time to ensure Morant’s safety.
The incident serves as a reminder of the importance of mental health awareness and the need to take social media posts seriously. It is also a reminder of the importance of having a support system in place, as the Memphis Police Department was able to quickly respond to the situation and ensure that Morant was safe.
It is unclear what prompted the post from Morant, but it is clear that he is in good spirits and that there is no cause for alarm. The Memphis Police Department should be commended for their swift response and for taking the time to ensure Morant’s safety.
