Shortly after, Morant deleted the first three IG stories about his family members and left only the one with NBA On TNT.

This development follows the suspension of Morant and an ongoing investigation by the NBA. Morant was seen holding what seemed to be a gun in an Instagram Live video posted on his friend Davante Pack's account, which came to light 10 days ago.

Morant had previously received an eight-game suspension by the NBA for flashing a gun in an Instagram Live video at a Colorado nightclub on March 4.

Earlier, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported that Morant is facing a much longer suspension this time.
