The Grizzlies have already suspended the player. According to Adrian Wojnarowski from ESPN, Morant might face a lengthy suspension at the begging of the 2023-24 NBA season.

The renowned journalist notes that NBA Commissioner Adam Silver will feel increasing pressure from other NBA teams besides the Grizzlies, noting the difficulty of marketing their own stars amidst the Morant controversies.

Wojnarowski says that there was a sense in the league that the 8-game suspension Morant received for his initial acts was too light. The journalist suggests that a lengthy suspension might be coming for the Grizzlies star for what is described as acts detrimental to the league's image.

Morant was seen on one of his friends' Instagram Live. The man was showing himself and Morant in the car. At first, the two are seen showing the sign of a gun with their hands. Moments later, Morant can be seen flashing what looks like a gun.

It is currently when or where the video was taken.
