South Carolina’s basketball legacy is getting even stronger, thanks to the amazing talent coming from the state. NBA star Zion Williamson and WNBA MVP A’ja Wilson are being recognized by more and more people and are impressing everyone. Recently, Ja Morant, another standout from South Carolina, jumped in to give a shout-out to his fellow stars.
On Monday, Slam posted on X (formerly Twitter) showing Ja Morant, A’ja Wilson, and Zion Williamson, all standout basketball players from South Carolina. The post highlighted how South Carolina is great at producing top-notch basketball talent.
Morant, who plays for the Memphis Grizzlies, showed his pride in his South Carolina roots by commenting, “Stamp dat!!” on the post, which celebrated his achievements along with Wilson’s and Williamson’s.
Even though Ja Morant and Wilson aren’t related, they have a strong bond from growing up in South Carolina and have been friends for a long time. Morant even backed Wilson during the WNBA Finals last year.
