Ja Morant’s camp insists the firearm shown in a recent video was a toy



On a recent episode of The Breakfast Club on Power 105.1 FM, Claudia Jordan cited sources about an update on the NBA’s investigation on Morant. Jordan revealed that the Memphis Grizzlies superstar’s representatives are adamant that he was holding a toy gun in the video.

>”My sources say that the relative in the back of the car in the back seat had a toy gun in the car,” Jordan said. “The gun is not real, and (the relative) was playing around with it. Passed it to Ja, and that got caught on the live he had in his hand. The video was sent to Adam Silver, NBA allegedly.

    Ja is playing games, but that wasn’t no toy.

  2. mMounirM

    how many “toy” guns is Ja around lol

  3. SelfFashioning

    Bruh. What kind of loser shit is trying to act gangsta with firearms and then pretending it’s a toy after being threatened with a suspension over it

  4. BrutallyHonesttho

    Flexing with toy guns doesn’t make it any better, it actually sounds more ridiculous.

  5. DogeGod_Ricky-C

    This dude is a clown, can we be done with him already?

  6. Jonathank92

    Lol take the L Ja. You’re not going to get sympathy

  7. solo118

    LMAO their camp just went to Walmart and spray painted a toy gun

  8. sctthuynh

    Cant wait for the release of Ja Morant’s book, “If I had a real gun, it would look like this”

    Why would someone in Ja’s friend group randomly have a toy gun with them in a car?

    Toy guns are just that, toys.. you buy them when you’re like 11 years old so you can play cops and robbers, hard to believe this guy is just messing around with toy guns

  10. rompskee

    Why carry a toy gun when you’ve been consistently jammed up over gun related things? That’s the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard

  11. Considering kids get routinely killed by cops for brandishing fake guns (with orange tip removed), not exactly the pivot they think it is.

  12. Oh shit, well if the woman from Sharknado 5 said it was a toy gun, you gotta believe her

  13. Toast2Carnage

    Never have I seen an NBA star become such a clown so quick

    Even if it was a “toy gun”, I don’t think that is the point anymore for the NBA. They don’t care about him legally owning guns, it’s his right that can’t be infringed on, but his reckless display/use of guns is thier issue. Plus doing it again right after coming off of suspension for flashing a gun in a public place.

    It’s clear that Ja has a long way to go on this matter. Hopefully, he stops recording every moment of his life as well as practice responsible gun safety instead of pretending he’s in a rap video.

    I see what Bomani was saying on his podcast that the defense was so ridiculous it might work.

  16. I_CUM_ON_HAMSTERS

    NBA: “We’re suspending Ja for half a season for waving around a firearm on video”

    Ja’s team: “Ummm akshually it was a TOY gun 🤓🤓”

    NBA: “Double the suspension, this PR is somehow cornier than the original video was problematic”

  17. DrPoupins

    LOL. Can’t imagine losing the bag for a “toy” and 100 followers.

  18. KyrieLS777

    That’s even more lame… flexing a fake gun? 😭😭😭

  19. Buck_Nastyyy

    C’mon man. Just accept your punishment, learn from it, and move on.

    I am not optimistic it will heppn though.

  20. Diddleyourfiddle

    I mean didn’t commish already say this isn’t a legal issue? If it’s about appearances it doesn’t really matter if the guns fake

  21. FieldsFanclub

    This is the best thing his PR team could come up with?

    Enjoy your 40 game suspension Ja

  22. CmonTouchIt

    Ja is really pushing the chewbacca defense here lmao

  23. Bajecco

    Ja Morant is a big time jabroni who has surrounded himself with a bunch of bums

  24. whowasonCRACK2

    An adult playing with toy guns for a fake music video is somehow even more pathetic than flashing a real one. If this is true he should be suspended for a full season

  25. kapitan_buko

    How stupid do they think the fans are?

  26. Chapea12

    Weeks later, its suddenly a toy gun. They could have said it right on the live instead of trying to hide the phone

  27. Ehgadsman

    What a bunch of bullshit. Ja’s ‘camp’ are a bunch of immature idiots holding him back from being a mature adult and a superstar in the NBA. They want him emotionally needy as an insecure teenager and spending his money on bar tabs and strippers for his so called friends. A mature Ja focused on a solid relationship with a self confident women and his own development is the last thing his ‘camp’ wants to see happen.

  28. BoysenberryGullible8

    Why do I suspect that he is lying?

  29. mazerati185

    Were they in a “toy” car too….???? Lol

  30. whateverizclever

    This sounds like a lie you make up when your Mama catches you doing some shit you’re not suppose to.

  31. ThedirtyNose

    How you get fired on your day off for stealing boxes?

  32. Free_Plum_007

    Can’t wait for the ESPN 30 for 30: Toy Soldier – The Ja Morant Story

  33. raymondl942

    This is such a dumb spin by his PR that they should tack on another 5 games for how stupid this is

  34. NIN10DOXD

    In the US, toy guns have been required to have orange tips for decades now. This is the heaviest cap I’ve seen.

  35. scrambled_cable

    Confucius say “Man with fake gun may get shot for real”

  36. _checkpickerupper

    Ja made r/nba allow a breakfast club post and source. He really is the goat

  37. _checkpickerupper

    This was a fake tweet 3 days ago. Good chance the breakfast club didn’t catch it then reported on it. Everyone is citing the breakfast club. Not the actual source
