Ja Morant (Memphis Grizzlies), Buddy Hield (Golden State Warriors)
Incident occurred Tuesday night, warning issued Thursday

Both players were issued formal warnings by the NBA for mimicking shooting gestures during a game. The league ruled the actions inappropriate but not violent in nature.
Morant made finger-gun gestures toward the Warriors bench, while Hield did the same just prior. Both received technical fouls during the game. The NBA, sensitive to Morant’s prior suspensions involving firearms, opted for a warning this time but reminded both teams of decorum expectations.

Ja Morant (Memphis Grizzlies), Buddy Hield (Golden State Warriors)
Incident occurred late in the Grizzlies-Warriors game on Tuesday night.

The NBA has launched an investigation into Ja Morant’s finger-gun gesture directed at the Warriors’ bench, as well as a gesture by Buddy Hield moments earlier. Both players received technical fouls.
Morant extended his left arm and mimicked firing guns with both hands during a timeout with 20.1 seconds left. Given his past suspensions for real firearm-related incidents on social media, the NBA is taking this act seriously and will speak to involved parties.
