He spoke publicly about the situation for the first time.
Grizzlies star Ja Morant claims that a gun seen in a recent video he posted to Instagram Live was not his.
During a sit-down with ESPN’s Jalen Rose, Morant’s first interview since Memphis announced he’d be taking some time away from the team, the 23-year-old opened up in regard to the situation that occurred in Colorado and how he’s dealing with things in the aftermath.
“The gun wasn’t mine,” Morant told Rose in the interview, which is set to air in full during SportsCenter with Scott Van Pelt on Wednesday night.

Tony Evers has been in office for two of the Packers quarterback’s four MVP seasons.
Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers’s Wednesday afternoon declaration of his intent to join the Jets on The Pat McAfee Show brought a bittersweet feeling to many Wisconsinites—including the holder of the highest office in the state.
Asked about Rodgers’s machinations Wednesday afternoon, Wisconsin governor Tony Evers expressed relief that Rodgers had revealed his preference for the 2023 NFL season while also noting the future Hall of Famer’s successes in Green Bay.
How Morant responds to his suspension could make this whole ordeal a footnote in his career—or an unfortunate harbinger.
The NBA announced its punishment for Grizzlies star Ja Morant on Wednesday, suspending the rising star for eight games after he brandished a firearm in a nightclub hours after Memphis’s March 3 loss to the Nuggets and posted it on social media. The suspension is retroactive to March 5, by when the Grizzlies had already sent Morant away from the team, meaning he is eligible to return on March 20.
When Minnesota Vikings wideout K.J. Osborn saved a man from a burning car, there was more focus on Osborn’s heroic act (for good reason) than on the man who was inside the burning car.
Over a week later, the man has identified himself and it turns out he’s a TV actor.
The 34-year-old man saved by Osborn was Nelson Thomas, a TV personality currently working as a contestant on MTV’s reality show, “The Challenge: World Championship.
The six-time Pro Bowler has played his entire pro career with Philadelphia.
Defensive tackle Fletcher Cox is remaining with the Eagles on a one-year, $10 million deal, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Wednesday.
Cox reportedly gave the Eagles a “hometown discount,” Schefter said, as the defensive star apparently turned down more lucrative offers elsewhere.
The six-time Pro Bowler is set to enter his 12th NFL season, all of which have been spent with Philadelphia.
Should Daniel Jones have sacrificed his salary in the name of Lamar Jackson?
The media seems to think so.
Their situations are not comparable.
Jackson turned down an offer from the Ravens for $133 million guaranteed over three years, according to himself. Jones signed a contract with the Giants for $82 million guaranteed over the first two years of the deal.
Yet the media has set out on a quest to use their current deals to prove Daniel Jones is privileged and Lamar Jackson is a victim.
A revolting revelation from the NFL analyst.
What’s the longest you’ll go without changing your bathing towel?
A few days? A week? Both are relatively reasonable answers.
But for ESPN’s Dan Orlovsky, he let’s his stew for a while longer. On Tuesday evening, Orlovsky shared his routine when it comes to hygiene and towel rotation, and his revelation left the internet appalled.
Daniel Briere’s first week as the interim GM of the Philadelphia Flyers took a turn when video surfaced of his son, Carson, shoving a woman’s empty wheelchair down a flight of steps.
Carson Briere plays hockey at Mercyhurst University in Erie, Pennsylvania. A video made the rounds on social media that shows Carson at a local bar called Sullivan’s Pub and Eatery, per CBS News. He and a group of friends are seen messing with a woman’s wheelchair before shoving it done a staircase.
The potential first-round pick’s draft stock may be taking a hit.
Former Georgia defensive tackle Jalen Carter once was touted as a potential No. 1 pick in the 2023 NFL draft, but his stock has plummetted of late.
In need of a strong showing at the UGA pro day Wednesday in order to regain some momentum heading into April’s draft, Carter reportedly had a dismal showing in Athens.
According to ESPN, Carter weighed in as much as nine pounds heavier than his usual 314-pound frame at Georgia’s pro day, and also struggled with his fitness, appearing exhausted while on the field.
The Spanish giants eliminated Liverpool from Champions League for the third straight year, although it wasn’t as lopsided as a 6–2 aggregate might seem.
It was, in the end, straightforward enough for Real Madrid. The reigning European champion progressed to the quarterfinal of the Champions League with a 1–0 second leg win over Liverpool for a 6–2 aggregate win. It was perhaps a more open game than Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti would have liked, but Liverpool never threatened the sort of surge that might have brought a comeback.
