The NBA recently suspended Ja Morant, the Memphis Grizzlies’ star point guard, for 25 games after he posted a second video on social media involving a gun. The video, which was posted on Morant’s Instagram account, showed him holding a gun while rapping along to a song.
The NBA has been cracking down on players who post videos involving guns on social media. This is the second time Morant has been suspended for such an incident. Last year, he was suspended for five games after posting a video of himself holding a gun.
The NBA has made it clear that they will not tolerate players posting videos involving guns on social media. They want to ensure that their players are setting a good example for young fans and that they are not promoting gun violence.
Morant has apologized for his actions and said that he understands the league’s decision to suspend him. He also said that he will use this time to reflect and learn from his mistake.
The suspension is a big blow to the Grizzlies, who are currently in the middle of a playoff push. Morant has been one of the team’s best players this season and his absence will be felt.
It remains to be seen if Morant will learn from this experience and stay away from posting videos involving guns in the future. In the meantime, the Grizzlies will have to find a way to make up for his absence and keep their playoff hopes alive.
