Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant will be away from the team for at least four more games, the team said on Wednesday, shortly after police announced that he will not face charges in Colorado related to the livestreamed video is which he appeared to be displaying a gun in a strip club.
"Ja Morant will continue to remain away from the team for at least the next four games," the team said with no further comment.
Meanwhile, the Glendale Police Department said it looked into the video, which was a stream that Morant showed on his Instagram channel while he seemed to be holding a firearm, and found no proof that a crime was committed. Glendale is an enclave surrounded by the city of Denver. "The investigation also concluded that no one was threatened or menaced with the firearm and in fact no firearm was ever located."
Police said the investigation confirmed that "the incident" -- Morant was not named in the release, which only made reference to "a prominent NBA player" -- occurred at an establishment called Shotgun Willies in Glendale. The two-time All-Star streamed the video in the early hours of Saturday, after the Grizzlies played in Denver on Friday night.
