Police in Glendale, Colorado, closed an investigation into Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant after failing to find “enough available evidence to charge anyone with a crime” following an incident involving the point guard last week, the department announced Wednesday.<\/p>\n
An investigation has been launched after the Grizzlies point guard livestreamed himself holding what looked to be a gun at a nightclub, which was identified in the department’s release as an establishment in Glendale.<\/p>\n
The inquiry, however, determined that no complaints were made from the club in question surrounding a gun and that a firearm was never found.<\/p>\n
“GPD was not able to determine that probable cause existed for the filing of any charges,” the department said.<\/p>\n
Morant will remain away from the Grizzlies for at least their next four games, the team announced later Wednesday.<\/p>\n
He is not with the squad during what head coach Taylor Jenkins deemed a “healing process.”<\/p>\n
The Grizzlies face the Golden State Warriors on Thursday, followed by two consecutive matchups against the Dallas Mavericks and a road encounter with the Miami Heat.<\/p>\n
Morant is also facing an NBA investigation. The league could still hand the 23-year-old its own punishment, including a lengthy suspension, despite no charges being filed by police.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
