MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Over the last couple of days, a ton of eyes globally have been on Memphis Grizzlies superstar Ja Morant, who is making his rounds through Asia as part of his ‘ Make Them Watch’ Nike campaign.

Here, stateside, his teammate Scotty Pippen Jr. is giving back to the Mid-South community.

Pippen is hosting his first youth camps this week between Memphis and Nashville, where he played college basketball at Vanderbilt.

This was his way of showing his appreciation for the support since arriving in Memphis in 2023.

“It’s a great feeling just to go back to two communities that I’ve played in. I’ve been in Tennessee most of my career, so to go back and see the kids and see the joy that they kind of look up to me is a good feeling,” said Pippen.
