Ja Morant Releases Statement Amid Latest Controversy

(Memphis, TN) — Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant is responding to his latest livestream video scandal. Morant was seen in a car on a livestream holding what appeared to be a firearm over the weekend. He was suspended for eight games earlier this season after he posted a video holding a gun in a Denver-area nightclub. Morant yesterday released a statement, saying he takes full accountability for his actions. He said he is “committed to continuing to work” on himself.
