Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant has been suspended for eight games without pay following an incident earlier in March in which he was seen on social media brandishing a gun in a Colorado club, the NBA announced Wednesday. Morant will be allowed to rejoin the team Monday, March 20, the league said.
The NBA's investigation ultimately could not conclude that the gun Morant was holding belonged to him, was brought into the club by him or was displayed for more than a brief period, the league said in a statement. Police in Glendale, Colorado, also did not find sufficient evidence to charge the 23-year-old with a crime.
The league added that its investigation did not find that Morant had the gun with him while traveling with his team to Colorado.
