A judge has dismissed a lawsuit filed by a teenager who accused two-time NBA All-Star Ja Morant of punching him during a pickup game at the home of the Memphis Grizzlies guard’s parents in 2022.
Shelby County Circuit Judge Carol Chumney issued an order Monday dismissing the lawsuit, saying in her ruling that Morant was immune from civil liability in the lawsuit filed by Joshua Holloway, who plays basketball for Samford University and just completed his sophomore season.
