41 games

Maybe something like 30 games + taking a class on public relations

I thought half the season, but after hearing Silver talk today, I think it will be about 10 - 20 games.

Judging by the timing, probably shorter than you think.

Half the season.

OJ Mayo got banned for 2 years for violating the NBA's anti-drug policy.

Discipline in the NBA sure has changed, lol.

With that said, I think he gets 20-30 games.

Should be 41 games with no pay.

Looking at 10-20 games IMO.

500 hours of NBA Cares events and 41 games.

See this is why Stern was so damn good.
This would never have gotten this far. He would have had Ja in his office before most of this stuff and laid down the law. You want to be rich, an all-time great hooper. Pull your head in, you get 1 warning.

35 games ? I think Ja is gonna be slapped with a big chunk of the season.

41, he is too popular to get the full season Metta World Peace treatment. Ending Morant is like ending the Memphis Grizzlies pocket money for the other 29 owners.

300k fine

Waiting until after the finals are over to announce the length of the suspension would seem to suggest a lengthy suspension is coming.

The entire upcoming season.

What if what the league uncovered was that Ja pointed a gun at that IND incident? And that MEM org covered it up?

Is that a 82 game suspension or life time ban?

That would be an obvious lifetime ban.

There is absolutely no excuse for pointing a firearm at someone other than self-defense.

That’s one of those indefinite suspensions where he can apply for reinstatement after a year or two. If that’s what they uncovered it would be surprising if he played again.

How many games?
