NBA superstar Ja Morant released a statement apologising for his actions to social media after he was reportedly suspended after posting a video on social media allegedly showing him flashing a gun while posing in a club on Friday night.
Morant is one of the rising stars in basketball but he has repeatedly hit headlines for the wrong reasons recently. The two-time All-Star was investigated by police for allegedly punching a teenager last summer while he celebrated teammate Desmond Bane’s three-pointer against the Houston Rockets by performing a gun celebration.
Ultimately, the Instagram clip is simply the latest in a wild run of alleged incidents as Morant appears to be desperately trying to derail his promising NBA career. In the clip - which was widely shared on social media - Morant is seen dancing topless in a strip club before he appears to lift a firearm to the side of his head.
