Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant remains in the news for off-the-court issues. 

Days after a police report said Morant allegedly exposed a gun after punching a teenager "12 or 13 times" during a pickup basketball game last summer, video surfaced Saturday of Morant appearing to display a gun while shirtless at a nightclub.

In a report by the Washington Post earlier in the week, Morant reportedly punched a teenager in the head "12 to 13 times" in a pickup basketball game at Morant’s house last summer. 

According to the report, Morant went into his house after the altercation and emerged with a gun in his waist and his hand on the weapon.
