    4 of those games are for going to the strip club without sweatpants

    2 days in “rehab,” 8 games suspended. What a weird series of events.

  3. YeezyYeezyUp2NoGood

    Is this retroactive or some shit? Or on top off when he decides to come back

  4. The_Shoe_Is_Here

    Does this start from the games that he was sitting out or from today? I NEED MORE CONTEXT WOJ

  5. AleroRatking

    Oh. People aren’t going to be happy about this. This isn’t the 50 games people wanted.

  6. ahend1999

    unacceptable! he needs to be suspended at least until AFTER march 26th 6:00pm!!!

    this is pretty much in line with previous gun suspensions if they couldn’t prove he brought the gun on the team plane.

    I hope NBA vets surround this dude and tell him just how lucky he is that this is his first offense. No one was injured, no one died. He can still come back from this with a fresh start and new outlook on his career.

    Gilbert Arenas is thinking…damn I died for this?

  10. mcknightrider

    I’m kinda surprised. Was this because of the gun? I honestly thought it’d be more if he brought it on a plane

    Has the NBA decided whether or not Mike Breen can utter a “bang bang” after a meaningful Ja Morant three?

    Dude really went to counseling for a day and said ” Naa I’m good just suspend me” lol

    I didn’t see it in the comments… But the reason it’s only 8 games is because the NBA said the gun wasn’t his (and he wasn’t on team facilities or plane, etc for that long automatic suspension).

    Really? I would think flashing someone else’s gun would lead to more games and not less. But hey, I’m crazy.

    Can’t wait for Ja’s next incident in roughly 2 weeks.

    The league said based on the information obtained during its investigation that it did not conclude that the gun at issue belonged to Morant, was brought by him into the nightclub or was displayed by him beyond a brief period. The investigation also did not find that Morant possessed the gun while traveling with the team or in any NBA facility, and the Colorado authorities did not find sufficient cause to charge Morant with a crime

    “How you gonna get suspended on your day off?”

  17. 8 games is basically a warning to Ja. He needs to change his ways or at least not film himself doing stuff that gets him into trouble.
