The Grizzlies have suspended point guard Ja Morant from all team activities after the All-Star guard was seen holding a gun on an Instagram Live video Saturday, the team announced.
“We are aware of the social media video involving Ja Morant,” the Grizzlies said in a statement. “He is suspended from all team activities pending league review. We have no further comment at this time.”
Morant served an eight-game suspension during the 2022-23 regular season after he posted a video on Instagram in which he flashed a gun at a Colorado night club in March. The point guard returned from the suspension for the rest of the season and played with Memphis until the team was eliminated in the first round of the playoffs.
