Bayless said that Wayne texted him and said, "Hey, can you connect me with Ja? Because I could help him. I've been there, I've done all this."
Wayne added his experience in prison on Rikers Island. He stated that he knows what happens, where it can go wrong, and what's right.
Bayless responded that he would try to reach the Grizzlies star, but unfortunately, Morant did not respond to the invitation.
"I got nothing back from Ja. Didn't expect anything back," he said.
The sports host mentioned that Wayne would fly to Memphis in a heartbeat if he thought he could save a career and a soul.
