Grizzlies say Morant will miss at least two games after social media post

The Memphis Grizzlies announced Saturday that star guard Ja Morant will be away from the team for at least two games.

The announcement comes after the NBA opened an investigation of Morant livestreaming himself holding what appeared to be a gun at a club earlier Saturday.

The video was streamed by Morant to his Instagram page, and it was not archived once he stopped the stream. The Grizzlies played in Denver on Friday night and are scheduled to fly to Los Angeles on Saturday for games against the Clippers on Sunday and the Lakers on Tuesday.

“We are aware of a social media post involving Ja Morant and are investigating,” NBA spokesman Mike Bass said Saturday.
