This same stripper goes so far as to say that Morant’s career is over.
“He’s obviously not easy to get attention to and he’s looking to be a basketball player,” he said. “He will be expelled from all clubs and stripped of his NBA career given the existing cases in our country related to gun violence. “
Another dancer said, “I wonder how he’s still on the team. “

In March it was revealed that he fought a teenager at home at a basketball game last summer and showed a gun. Morant says he acted in self-defense.
The Indiana Pacers also claimed that a matchup involving Morant and his affiliates in January had an effect on the team. During the alleged incident, a red laser was pointed at Pacers players from an SUV carrying Morant. The Pacers believed a gun was pointed at them and reported the incident to NBA officials.

Morant admitted his off-court issues were a distraction for the team that played a role in ridding the second-seeded Memphis Grizzlies of the playoffs in the first round.
“I know I have disappointed many other people who have supported me. It’s a journey and I recognize that there are still things to do,” Morant said in a message received through Fox News Digital. “My words may not mean much. “At this time, however, I assume full duty of my actions. I am committed to proceeding to paint myself. “
