Grizzlies suspend Morant from all activities. MORE:

It’s the second time in less than three months that Morant was seen on Instagram holding what appeared to be a weapon. The first led to an eight-game NBA suspension that was handed down in March and cost Morant about $669,000 in salary.

“Ja’s conduct was irresponsible, reckless and potentially very dangerous,” NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said in a statement in March after meeting with Morant and deciding on the suspension's length. “It also has serious consequences given his enormous following and influence, particularly among young fans who look up to him.”

This will be at least the third known NBA investigation surrounding Morant and the possible possession of firearms so far in 2023. The NBA confirmed that unnamed individuals were banned from the arena but said its investigation found no evidence that anyone was threatened with a weapon.
