The NBA has opened an investigation after Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant appeared to show off a gun on a late-night social media video stream early Saturday morning.
In one incident that occurred at Morant’s home last summer, a teenager alleged that Morant had flashed a gun at him after a fight, though the presence of a gun was not corroborated by police. In a postgame confrontation in January,
Tanner said the incident involving the teenager last summer “was purely self defense. Again, after this was fully investigated by law enforcement, they came to the decision not to charge Ja with any crime. Any of the dozens of witnesses will confirm Ja acted in self-defense and that he did not have a firearm.”
In transcripts of police interviews last summer, Morant confirmed he owned a handgun. Police later mentioned the teenager’s allegation that he had flashed a gun after their fight, but did not directly ask Morant whether it had occurred. Neither Morant nor his attorney subsequently denied the incident, the transcript shows. Morant’s attorneys produced a number of affidavits from witnesses present at the fight who do not mention the presence of a gun.
