Ja Morant has been a popular name around the NBA for the past couple of weeks.
The Memphis Grizzlies superstar reportedly flashed a gun for the second time in two months, which prompted the team to suspend him from all activities.
The NBA is still waiting to reveal its decision on this case, but there is a common belief that Morant will get a lengthy suspension for his actions.
Sam Amico of HoopsWire, via NBA Central, claims that the NBA is expected to suspend Morant for no less than the first half of the 2023-24 NBA season.

This would be a long suspension for the young player who was once considered one of the future faces of the league.
With his recent incidents, the Grizzlies have given all the responsibility to the NBA to decide what to do with Morant.
The former No. 2 overall pick vowed to act better after his first incident, only to do the same a short time later.
Following a first-round elimination from the 2023 NBA Playoffs, the team has a lot of decisions to make ahead of next season.
Some think that Morant could be playing a dangerous game and his life could be on the line if he doesn’t get it together.

Morant needs to make better decisions. He has the talent and the charisma to become the face of the NBA, but with this behavior, Morant’s future may be outside of the association.
