Earlier this week, the NBA launched an investigation into Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant for a finger gun gesture he made during a game on Tuesday against the Golden State Warriors.  Morant, who has a history of discipline for issues relating to guns,

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant was fined $75,000 by the NBA for his finger-gun gestures during their game against the Miami Heat. The league had already issued a warning to him and Golden State Warriors' guard Buddy Hield.

Ja Morant has yet another gun-related investigation going on, as the league is reportedly looking into a gesture he and Warriors' Buddy Hield made on Tuesday night.

Ja Morant broke his silence after the NBA warned him against using finger guns against the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday.

Lou Williams' advice to the league is to pass their own gun law and ban the gesture instead of specifically targeting Grizzlies' Ja Morant.

Memphis guard Ja Morant risked further action from the NBA after making a shooting gesture with his finger during Thursday's game against the Miami Heat despite being warned earlier in the week to refrain from the "inappropriate" celebration.

Even upon his return from suspension, Morant sparked debate with a celebration that many interpreted as mimicking a firearm, though nothing came of it officially. The league’s tolerance appears to be wearing thin, and Tuesday’s finger-gun incident may serve as the tipping point.

The NBA is investigating Ja Morant — who has been suspended multiple times by the NBA for waiving a gun on social media — for using a gun gesture toward the Golden State bench and in celebration of 3-pointers during the Grizzlies’ loss to the Warriors Tuesday night, reports Shams Charania of ESPN.

“Ja Morant’s decision to once again wield a firearm on social media is alarming and disconcerting given his similar conduct in March for which he was already suspended eight games,” NBA commissioner Adam Silver said at the time of the suspension. “The potential for other young people to emulate Ja’s conduct is particularly concerning.”
