He took time away from the team to work on his shooting.

Ahem...

The NBA already let the Grizzlies handle it internally, so I'm not expecting much, if any, additional penalty from the NBA. However, he hasn't been officially suspended by the league which means he hasn't missed any game checks yet. That's a bit strange, IMO.
Besides the Arenas situation, previous gun related suspensions have been in the range of 7 games. I think we'll see Ja miss a similar amount when it's all finished.

In all seriousness... nice call

Oh my. Glad they are okay.

He's on the full image redemption tour right now, and it's fine with me. He's young and these mistakes can be forgiven. I have no problem moving past this stuff if his behavior changes. I'm just glad no one was actually harmed.
But I do enjoy a good cookie.

That was just to say once formal criminal charges weren't levied and evidence of him having the gun on NBA property didn't exist, he'd be back sooner than later. I never believed the stuff about him missing the rest of the regular season and certainly not playoff games.

I'm not sure there was enough to justify the league suspending Morant substantially more than what they did. He is a knucklehead hanging with the wrong crowd, but that has been the case with a lot of players.
On a related note, I'm not a mental health expert of therapist, but I found it laughable that any mental health or behavioral issue can be solved in just a couple of weeks.

Trendon Watford. Please and thank you.
Re: Around the League News: Week 22 (3/13 - 3/20)
I loved the two replays that went against the Clippers tonight in the 4th quarter. Zubac initiated contact with Draymond and they caught it on replay. And Eric Gordon did go out of his way to lean into Kuminga to try to draw the foul. Now if can get that officiating applied to the stars of the league...

I also caught myself laughing a bit last night watching Cleveland-Philly on ESPN and every commercial break was a John Wick commercial where he's cocking his gun and shooting everyone in front of him.

Well, they did kill the man's dog. I think he's entitled to murder any number of people in response, in perpetuity.

Between him and Morpheus I can't believe there's anyone left to kill.

I’m so hyped for John Wick 4. Next week can’t come fast enough.
Other summer movies I’m really looking forward to are M:I 7 and The Flash. Can’t wait.

He's done. I wonder how much damage is related to playing in knockoff "performance" shoes for a few years.
