Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant says he's taking “full accountability” after he flashed a gun on social media for the second time this year.
“I know I’ve disappointed a lot of people who have supported me,” the 23-year-old point guard said Tuesday evening. “This is a journey and I recognize there is more work to do.”
The statement came two days after the Memphis Grizzlies said the athlete was suspended pending a league review after Morant was seen in an Instagram Live video over the weekend waving what appeared to be a firearm as he was in a car with a friend.
