NBA star AJ Griffin is quitting his million dollar job for Religious reasons

[UpAndComing]

I get being super religious, but damn. Really going to throw it all away

I don't understand what about playing sports is "un-holy" ?

 

[Fani Willis fan]

Play in Atlanta, brehs

You know what I can respect it. From the second tweet U&C it sounds like dude is maybe a Jehovah witness.

I know in boxing and MMA Muslim brothas take breaks to observe Ramadan.

Wish this cat the best either way.

Well I salute the brother no telling what kind of things you have to do to stay in that industry.

OP added the part about it being for religious reasons. There's no confirmation that's the real reason he's stepping away.

He might of saw something behind the curtain

It’s probably political or things going on behind the scenes. Sports go back to Ancient Greece and we know what they was about.

He said it. The world is a distraction from the divine. Sacrifice in this short life for excellence in the hereafter.

I’d say do atleast 3 seasons, enough to get his pension. Too much effort and sacrifice went into making it to the NBA

 

[Remote]

Foolish.

Y'all don't understand how much there is a correlation between black christian and mental illness

Who says you can’t pray and bounce a ball? In fact he’s giving up a big platform that can reach more people.
