LOS ANGELES: Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant was suspended for 25 games by the NBA on Friday after being caught waving a gun in a social media video for the second time this year.
"Ja Morant's decision to once again wield a firearm on social media is alarming and disconcerting given his similar conduct in March for which he was already suspended eight games," Silver said. "I've had time to reflect and realize how much hurt I've caused," said Morant, who was suspended from team activities by the Grizzlies last month following the emergence of the latest gun video.
"Our standards as a league and team are clear, and we expect that all team personnel will adhere to them." No charges were brought in that incident, in which the player's agent said he was acting in self defense.
