Ja Morant is one of the NBA’s brightest young stars, with a new signature Nike sneaker, a top-selling jersey, and a club, the Memphis Grizzlies, primed for a long postseason run. Yet, according to previously unreported police documents obtained by The Washington Post, Morant and those connected to him have been accused of threatening and even violent conduct in a series of episodes dating back to last summer.
This summer, in an unreported incident, the head of security at a Memphis mall told police that Morant “threatened” him after an altercation in the parking lot, which worried him enough to make a police report. According to authorities, a member of Morant’s gang shoved the director in the head. According to the records, no arrests were made.
Morant repeatedly hit a teenage kid in the head during a pickup basketball game at Morant’s residence four days later, according to the victim. According to a police report narrative made by deputies who saw the boy’s injuries, Morant and his companion beat the 17-year-old so hard that he knocked him to the ground and left him with a “large knot” on the side of his head.
According to previously unseen police interviews acquired by The Post, Morant told officers from the Shelby County Sheriff’s Office that after the struggle, he returned to his house and re-emerged with a gun visible in the waistline of his jeans and his hand on the weapon.
