  • Here is a timeline of his controversies. 

The NBA has suspended Memphis Grizzlies star participant Ja Morant for 25 video games, almost one-third of the upcoming season.

That is the second suspension this yr and comes after a second video appeared to point out him holding a gun. This was much like the incident that led to his first suspension, which lasted eight video games. 

“Ja Morant’s determination to as soon as once more wield a firearm on social media is alarming and disconcerting given his related conduct in March for which he was already suspended eight video games,” NBA commissioner Adam Silver stated in an announcement.

The suspension will price Morant $7.6 million.

The gamers’ union referred to as the suspension “extreme and inappropriate.” Some felt the penalty was not harsh sufficient.
