Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant is under investigation in Colorado after he appeared to brandish a gun while in a nightclub after the team had played the Denver Nuggets on Friday night, police said.

Morant appeared in a livestream on Instagram and is believed to have filmed the incident in Glendale, located right outside Denver. 

Glendale police Capt. Jamie Dillon told The Associated Press authorities didn’t receive any calls or complaints about Morant’s actions but began looking into them Saturday after learning about the video that circulated on social media.

Police are probing whether Morant broke any laws.

There is no timetable for Morant’s return to the team, coach Taylor Jenkins said Sunday before they took on the Los Angeles Clippers. The superstar point guard was going to be away from the team for at least two games.

Jenkins said that Morant has made "difficult decisions and poor choices" that he has to be accountable for.

"He’s definitely embracing the mistakes that he’s made, but only time will tell. We’re going to support him, and we’re going to hold him accountable to make those changes,"
