Portland Trail Blazers Star Ja Morant Sends Emotional Message After Injury

Ja Morant had two replies for Vit Krejci after his Portland Trail Blazers teammate fractured his left ankle. The first was a word of encouragement. The second made clear Krejci had company. “Hold yo head , we’ll never fall,” Morant wrote in one Instagram comment, adding a prayer-hands emoji. In another, he wrote, “we with you brudda.” Krejci had used the post to talk about patience and what he had learned from previous setbacks. “I’ve faced adversity many times before, and every setback has taught me something valuable,” he wrote. He closed by thanking people who had reached out.
