NBA has suspended the Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant for 25 games to start the 2023-2024 season after the Grizzlies hooper was seen flashing a firearm on social media following an eight-game suspension for a similar incident in March.

According to Sam Amick of The Athletic, Ja Morant reportedly blamed “heavy drinking” for his bad decisions in Colorado during a meeting with Adam Silver, Joe Dumars, and Tamika Tremaglio.

“They heard him blame the poor decision making inside that Glendale, Colo., strip club on the heavy drinking, recalling how the events of that night were all so fuzzy because of the booze that was flowing so freely. They believed him when he shared a message that was both humble and contrite.”
