The Memphis Grizzlies have suspended their All-Star guard, Ja Morant, following his involvement in an Instagram Live video where he was seen displaying what appeared to be a gun.

Additionally, he may face further financial repercussions if his endorsement deals with brands like Nike and Powerade are affected.
