Ja Morant Allegedly Spotted Holding Gun In Live Video Again

[RealGM Wiretap]

Ja Morant was allegedly spotted on an Instagram Live video holding a gun. Morant appeared to be in a car with friends when he held up a gun while the video was streaming live.

Morant missed nine games in early- to mid-March after brandishing a gun in a video filmed in a Denver area nightclub. Morant was ultimately suspended for eight games total by NBA, while being given credit for the first five games he sat out.

In an interview with ESPN after being suspended, Morant said he made a "terrible mistake" and promised to be accountable for his actions moving forward.

“It’s not who I am,” Morant said. “I don’t condone any type of violence but I take full responsibility for my actions. I made a bad mistake, and I can see that image I painted over myself with my recent mistakes, but in the future, I’ll make sure everybody knows who Ja really is, and what I’m about and change this narrative.”

Kobe raped a girl, not the best example of a player with the correct mindset.

Where was he? Is he a convicted felon or on any drugs or psychiatric care that would make it illegal to possess a gun? Sounds like bad trigger control and he should stay off instaclown but it's his constitutional right to own and carry a gun. If this was Malik Monk out bird hunting with a shotgun we wouldn't hear a peep.

What a joke Ja has become, people actually thought a few days of “rehab” changed him lol.

Allegedly rape.


Morant should shaved off his hair to looks more mature. I will never believe he’s changed unless he shaved his hair.

How does a haircut make someone more mature?

What a idiot

Technically he's commiting a felony by concealing it but maybe he has his permit.

It’s his constitutional right to own a gun. Open carry depends on what state he’s in. It’s not legal in every state.

If it was a white dude like JJ Reddick or Kyle Korver showing off his gun this would be a non-story.

Tennessee and Mississippi are open carry states just want to make sure I am providing context.

Omg… People and their fake victimhood. NBA players are public figures and all would receive blow back if they were also pretending to be hard by holding a gun in the air for a TikTok video like a damn idiot.

What kind of dumbass catches heat for displaying a gun for no reason, then does it AGAIN… Maybe Ja should be hitting up Krover or Reddick for tips on how not to act like an effing clown.

Agreed, but when I’m carrying I don’t unholster my weapon to post a TikTok video because that’s stupid and irresponsible especially for a public figure.

I think if they're going hunting, then it's different. Even someone like LBJ could go hunting, but it would definitely limit his endorsement deal potential when it comes to things like eco friendly products and foods. Randomly brandishing a gun in public, however, would always be frowned upon.

Steve Kerr and Greg Popovich will find a way to blame Trump or Republicans for this man carrying out his constitutional rights.

Concealing a weapon has nothing to do with open carry. Unless you have a permit that thing would have to be unloaded with the magazine seperated in a case.

Dude. This isn’t a constitutional rights issue. If Ja legally owns that weapon then it’s a bad look for every legal possessor by indiscriminately waving it in the air. It gives the opportunity to anti gun people like Kerr and Pop to just loop all legal gun owners in with this idiot like they do with everything else.

Depends on the state. But yeah that would depend on permitting (e.g. Georgia and Florida are concealed).

I'm not saying this is smart given his prior 'incident'. Just that Ja Morant is an American and has rights. If the NBA wants to enact some kind of collective bargain that constrains a player/union members rights I think they'll run into problems.

I don't agree. LeBron hunting would be an advertising coup for places like Bass or Orvis. I hope you aren't implying that basketball fans, or even worse Black Americans don't enjoy the outdoors? or hunting and fishing? That's pretty racist.

I do agree recklessly brandishing a gun will get you no endorsements. Even gun stalwarts look at that kind of behavior as antithetical to responsible gun ownership and self defense.
