This time, he’s seen holding a gun while inside a car with one of his friends and listening to the new NBA Youngboy 'Richest Opp' mixtape. It is currently unknown when or where the video was taken.

Two months ago, Ja flashed a gun while at a Denver strip club. That resulted in the Memphis Grizzlies star beingsuspended indefinitely, which amounted to 8 games.

However, Morant has now been suspended from all team activities pending NBA review once again, due to waving another firearm, according to Yahoo's Shams Charania.

NBA spokesperson Mike Bass said, "We are aware of the social media post involving Ja Morant and are in the process of gathering more information."

While he was away from the team facility,a photo was leaked from the nightclubthat shows Morant with dancers and almost every inch of surface covered in cash.

Two main stories from Morant's offseason have been in the public discourse recently. First, a story came out that hepunched a teenager during a basketball game in his home in Tennessee. After the incident, he allegedly re-emerged from the house with a gun visible in the waistband of his pants and his hand on the weapon.

During the summer, Morant also got involved in averbal altercation with Memphis police in one of the city's malls when he and his friends refused the security guard’s demands to leave the mall parking lot.

Meanwhile, Morant still hasn't spoken publicly, regarding this second incident. This also comes after the Grizzlies were eliminated in the first round of the NBA Playoffs by the Los Angeles Lakers, in six games.
