00:00:00.090 --> 00:00:03.060
- My tummy hurts and I'm
ready to be outraged,

2
00:00:03.060 --> 00:00:04.560
so I'm gonna watch Ja Morant

3
00:00:04.560 --> 00:00:06.304
apparently flash a gun in a club.

4
00:00:06.304 --> 00:00:07.979
(upbeat music)

5
00:00:07.979 --> 00:00:11.220
(hip hop music)

6
00:00:11.220 --> 00:00:12.416
What was that?

7
00:00:12.416 --> 00:00:14.250
(laughs) Just a little, whoop.

8
00:00:14.250 --> 00:00:18.000
Just a little lethal weapon maybe?

9
00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:20.307
Maybe I'm gonna use this later.

10
00:00:20.307 --> 00:00:23.370
That's what I think when I see a gun.

11
00:00:23.370 --> 00:00:27.543
It's like, just so you know, I
might shoot you in your face.

12
00:00:30.150 --> 00:00:32.070
Are you stupid, dude?

13
00:00:32.070 --> 00:00:35.370
I'm sure he was just having fun.

14
00:00:35.370 --> 00:00:36.600
I don't know.

15
00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:38.426
He does seem like a good fella,

16
00:00:38.426 --> 00:00:42.000
except for that one time that
he might've beat up a kid.

17
00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:43.470
I don't know what happened with that.

18
00:00:43.470 --> 00:00:46.860
Anyway, he's like the
future face of the NBA.

19
00:00:46.860 --> 00:00:51.860
This could be humongous for
the Grizzlies, for the NBA.

20
00:00:51.870 --> 00:00:54.750
It could be exposing,

21
00:00:54.750 --> 00:00:58.320
one, a truth that more
athletes maybe are armed

22
00:00:58.320 --> 00:00:59.160
than we know.

23
00:00:59.160 --> 00:01:00.397
He put out a statement.

24
00:01:00.397 --> 00:01:02.647
"I take full responsibility
for my actions.

25
00:01:02.647 --> 00:01:05.467
"I'm sorry to my family,
teammates, coaches, fans, partners,

26
00:01:05.467 --> 00:01:08.227
"the city of Memphis and the
entire Grizzlies organization

27
00:01:08.227 --> 00:01:09.270
"for letting you down."

28
00:01:09.270 --> 00:01:10.890
I know that your job is stressful,

29
00:01:10.890 --> 00:01:15.510
but good Lord we can't flash
guns on Instagram Live.

30
00:01:15.510 --> 00:01:18.114
The thing that I feel like
he's taking full responsibility

31
00:01:18.114 --> 00:01:22.050
for is the fact that he
got so drunk, apparently,

32
00:01:22.050 --> 00:01:26.580
that his judgment was
clouded enough to reveal

33
00:01:26.580 --> 00:01:27.957
what appears to be a gun.

34
00:01:27.957 --> 00:01:30.060
That's how he's been dealing with stress

35
00:01:30.060 --> 00:01:31.290
is to get fucked up.

36
00:01:31.290 --> 00:01:32.550
What if it was a fake gun?

37
00:01:32.550 --> 00:01:33.427
He's like, whoop,

38
00:01:33.427 --> 00:01:35.287
"I just carry a fake
gun with me to the club

39
00:01:35.287 --> 00:01:36.695
"so I look badass."

40
00:01:36.695 --> 00:01:39.030
(dance music)

41
00:01:39.030 --> 00:01:41.247
Thanks for watching, and
whoop, stick with Deadspin.

42
00:01:41.247 --> 00:01:43.129
(upbeat music)
