Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant will continue to be away from the team, according to the latest report from ESPN.
Morant has entered a counseling program in Florida, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski and Tim MacMahon. The All-Star guard has been away from the team after posting video of himself at a nightclub with a gun on Instagram Live earlier this month.
“There remains no timetable for his return to active play,” Wojnarowski tweeted Monday night.
The Grizzlies first said Morant would be on suspension, which the team called a “leave of absence,” for at least two games.
Memphis then announced Morant would miss at least four more games, which would put him on track to return this Friday. However, head coach Taylor Jenkins was evasive about the young playmaker’s status earlier today.
“There are a lot of internal dialogues going on and obviously there’s still things going on at the league level that we’re in communication with,” Jenkins said. “Ja’s fully engaged in this process and ready for whatever comes next after these two games.”
Hopefully, this decision to go to counseling has a positive long-term effect on Morant.
