Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant may not have physically had a gun in his hand, but a gun-related gesture on the court has led to an NBA investigation, according to ESPN. 

During the Grizzlies’ game against the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night, Morant was seen making a gun gesture toward the Warriors’ bench. 

The act saw Stephen Curry and Draymond Green, two Golden State stars, visibly upset on the hardwood, with the latter trying to plead to the referee that something should be done to discipline Morant.

That wasn’t the only gun-related gesture on the night, as Buddy Hield of the Warriors was also seen doing the same during the clip of Morant that went viral. 

Morant re-posted a photo from an X account, which showed that moment.

League officials will look into both Morant and Hield after the Tuesday night game and "talk to involved parties as soon as Wednesday," ESPN reported.

Morant’s history with gun-related suspensions made the gesture blow up across the basketball world. 

He was suspended for eight games in March 2023 after brandishing a handgun on social media at the strip club Shotgun Willie’s outside of Denver. 

Then, Morant was docked the first 25 games of the 2023-24 season after he flashed a handgun again on a social media live video.
