Video emerged earlier this month of Morant flashing the gun during a visit to the club in suburban Denver. He has already missed five games in the fallout from the incident, and will be eligible to return for his team’s game against the Dallas Mavericks on Monday.

“Ja’s conduct was irresponsible, reckless and potentially very dangerous,” NBA commissioner Adam Silver said in a statement. “It also has serious consequences given his enormous following and influence, particularly among young fans who look up to him.”

Good call. He is a good player but needs discipline.
 
"Honestly, I feel like we put ourselves in that situation with our past mistakes, and now it's only right that we focus in and lock in on being smarter and more responsible, holding each other accountable for everything," Morant said Wednesday during an interview with ESPN's Jalen Rose, referring to his inner circle. "I feel like in the past we didn't know what was at stake. And now finally me having that time to realize everything, have that time alone, I realize that now.

This strikes me as a slow news day thread.

I mean how many people still care about the NBA?

I did read a claim that Lebron has been a medically dirty player for most of his career.....which sounds right.
