Ja Morant, star guard for the Memphis Grizzlies, will be serving a 25-game suspension at the start of the 2023-24 NBA season. This comes after he was caught on video once again appearing to hold a gun, prompting the team to take action. Morant had already been suspended earlier in the year for a similar incident.The video in question showed Morant in the passenger seat of a vehicle, dancing and then pulling out the gun to show off for the camera. Despite being filmed with friends, Morant's father, Tee Morant, made it clear that there were no excuses for his son's actions. Tee expressed his disappointment and emphasized the importance of making responsible decisions.
This is not the first time Morant has faced accusations of wrongdoing. He was involved in a fight with a teenager at his home during a pickup basketball game and was seen brandishing a gun in a Denver nightclub. After the Denver incident, Morant checked himself into a clinic for stress management. He later acknowledged that his off-court incidents were likely a distraction.
One incident involving Morant and his associates had an impact on another NBA team, the Indiana Pacers. During the alleged altercation, a red laser was pointed at Pacers players from an SUV carrying Morant. While the NBA's investigation found that no one had threatened others with a weapon, the incident still had consequences for Morant.
In a statement obtained by Fox News Digital, Morant expressed his recognition of his actions and the disappointment he has caused. He took full responsibility for his behavior and expressed his commitment to personal growth and improvement.
As Morant serves his suspension, it remains to be seen how this will affect his career and future in the NBA.
