    Ja Morant Suspended from Grizzlies for Possible New Gun Video

    Morant, the star Memphis Grizzlies guard, was first suspended in March after he flashed a gun during an Instagram Live video.Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant, 23, is under scrutiny from the N.B.A. again after he flashed an object that looked like a gun in a carefree manner during an Instagram Live video posted over the weekend.The video, which appeared to be posted on Saturday, came just over two months after the N.B.A. suspended Morant for displaying a gun in a live Instagram video filmed at a nightclub near Denver. He expressed remorse then, saying that the gun did not belong to him and that he would be better.On Sunday, the Grizzlies said in a statement that they had suspended Morant from all team activities pending the league’s review of the new video. Memphis was eliminated from the playoffs last month after losing to the Lakers in the first round. Mike Bass, a league spokesman, said the N.B.A. was “aware” of the post and was gathering more information.In March, the league suspended Morant for eight games after the nightclub video. N.B.A. Commissioner Adam Silver noted Morant’s “enormous following and influence” in the announcement of that suspension, which classified the gun incident as conduct detrimental to the league. That Instagram Live video was posted early on March 4, when, the N.B.A. said, Morant had been “in an intoxicated state.” Morant soon checked into a facility in Florida for counseling.“I’m going to take some time away to get help and work on learning better methods of dealing with stress and my overall well-being,” Morant said at the time in a statement, which was posted on Twitter by Tandem, the agency that represents him.In contrast to Sunday, when the Grizzlies suspended Morant, the team first responded to March’s incident less pointedly, simply saying that Morant would step away from the team. Coach Taylor Jenkins shied away from criticizing Morant when addressing reporters then and offered few details about any conversations he or the team might have had with Morant.Morant later said going to counseling was his idea.The nightclub incident was just one in a series of concerning off-court situations for Morant going back to last summer, some of which involved people who said they felt threatened by Morant or his associates, according to reports in The Washington Post and The Athletic.One incident involved a fight with a 17-year-old, Josh Holloway, whom Morant had invited to his home for a pickup game in July. Holloway has filed a suit against Morant; the police investigated the incident but have not charged Morant. Four days earlier, a mall security employee had accused Morant of threatening him after Morant’s mother, Jamie Morant, had been involved in a disagreement at a shoe store.TMZ also reported that the police investigated Morant for intimidation after a high school volleyball game in September, when Morant said somebody had insulted his sister. During an interview with ESPN, Morant said he feared for his sister’s safety and left when he knew she was safe.Before Morant returned to the Grizzlies from his suspension in March, he met with Silver, the commissioner, and called the meeting an “open discussion.”“Obviously, he said things I need to be better at, but more of just showing his support towards me,” Morant said during the interview with ESPN. “I accepted that, and I also sent my apologies to everybody — to the league, myself, my teammates, my family for putting that negativity towards all of us with a bad decision.”Morant’s eight-game suspension, announced March 15, included the five games he had already missed when he left the team for counseling.“I’m a totally different person than what’s been shown in the media,” Morant said in the ESPN interview, broadcast hours after his suspension was announced. “That’s my job now. That’s why I took that time away, to become a better Ja, so everybody really can see who Ja really is and you know what he’s about.”Once he returned, he showed a mixture of defiance and contrition. He said the journey that he began in counseling was a continuing process.He was celebrated by Grizzlies fans in his first game back. Members of his family wore attire that said “redemption” on it. In comments after the game, Morant indicated that he felt unfairly targeted at times.Still, that return was an opportunity for Morant to show that his stated desire to be better was sincere.Morant is one of the league’s top guards. His signature shoe with Nike made its debut in March. Nike did not immediately respond to a request for comment about Morant’s latest suspension. After the March incidents, Nike released a statement saying the company supported Morant’s “prioritization of his well-being.”He just completed his fourth season with the Grizzlies, having come to the team as a small but electrifying point guard out of Murray State as the No. 2 overall pick in the 2019 draft. He is the leader on a young team that had been one of the best in the Western Conference all season even as Memphis coped with injuries to key players.Last week, after Morant was not selected as one of the six guards on the three All-N.B.A. teams, he reposted a tweet from a Grizzlies beat writer that suggested that his off-court behavior might have contributed to his not being selected.Morant signed a five-year contract extension last summer, which included an additional $38 million if he made the All-N.B.A. team this year. According to The Associated Press, Morant filed a countersuit against Holloway in April, accusing Holloway of harming his reputation and potentially costing him millions of dollars. More

    KSI vs Joe Fournier result: KSI brutally KNOCKS OUT Joe Fournier with ILLEGAL ELBOW as YouTuber eyes Tommy Fury fight

    KSI scored a brutal second-round knockout of Joe Fournier – but replays showed the final blow was an illegal ELBOW.The British YouTube sensation stepped up to face his first opponent with professional boxing experience in 9-0 Fournier.

    But replays showed he floored Fournier with a nasty elbowCredit: DAZN

    All seemed to go to plan as a right hand had Fournier shaken and heading backwards.
    It caused the self-proclaimed millionaire nightclub tycoon-turned-fighter to fire back causing a shootout in the middle of the ring.
    And in the blink of an eye, Fournier was decked to the canvas in what looked to be a stunning KO.
    But replays clearly showed KSI’s right hand followed through and an elbow landed flush on Fournier’s chin.

    Although KSI insisted it was a legal blow when probed by DAZN.
    He said: “I hit him with a massive shot and he was dazed, he was scrambling trying to hold onto me for dear life.”
    But YouTube Jake Paul was quick to suggest KSI should have been disqualified for the apparent elbow.
    The American wrote: “I respect boxing too much to respect what that was.

    “If that was indeed a real boxing match it will be ruled a no contest or disqualification.”
    Misfits Boxing fans were quick to comment on the illegal blow, with one saying: “KSI landed a gnarly elbow which led to the KO.”
    Another said: “KSI awarded the W after hitting his opponent with an elbow and knocking him out. WTF?
    And another said: “KSI sneaking in an elbow? Bro, turn that W to a no-contest man ruining the sport of boxing.”
    One remarked: “KSI shouldn’t take that win, you can’t elbow someone and knock them out in a boxing ring. Accident or not.”
    Another chimed in: “KSI should have been disqualified after hitting Fournier with an elbow for the KO.”
    A fuming Fournier told Fred Talks Fighting: “He cheated, it’s clear, you’ve all seen the replays. He hit me with a clean elbow.
    “When you’re fighting the promoter on his own show – I’ve never been cheated like that.”
    KSI, 29, was quick off the mark in the opening rounds, bouncing on his toes and skirting around the ring.
    Fournier – looking every bit of 40 – struggled to get in his rhythm and fell behind early on.

    The businessman-gone-boxer came out more confidently in the second and scored with a one-two of his own.
    But it sparked a furious reaction from KSI, who fired back with a right hook which landed on the money.
    When the two traded in the pocket, Fournier fell victim to a clear elbow which looked to have put his lights out.
    The result remained and KSI moved to six wins and one draw in the ring, calling out Tommy Fury as his next opponent.
    Fury, who beat Jake Paul in their Saudi Arabia grudge match in February, was ringside at Wembley Arena on a scouting mission.
    And before long, the two faced off in the ring and agreed to another blockbuster celebrity boxing bout.
    KSI said: “I want this, I want to do what Jake Paul couldn’t; knock you out.”
    Fury, 24, replied: “That’s never, ever gonna happen. All I can say is, sign me up. Easy money, easy money.

    “You are going to sleep in four rounds. Four rounds, asleep. Gung ho, no defence, no head movement. Knocked out.”
    The two then signed off their back-and-forth with a shoving match.

    I went from making videos in my bedroom to having all the money I need – now it’s time to give back, says KSI

    KSI has completed the stunning rise from a teenage gamer in his bedroom to multimillionaire superstar – now he wants to give back. The 29-year-old – real name Olajide Olayinka Williams Olatunji – started his YouTube channel in 2009.

    And over a decade later, KSI has become a pioneer of the social media site, with over 40 MILLION subscribers.
    His content creation has taken him into the world of movies, music and now boxing, earning him a reported net worth of around £20m.
    But after making enough to cash one could ever wish for, KSI tells SunSport inspiring others is now his main focus.
    In an exclusive interview, he said: “I think once I made a certain amount of money, I kind of got to the point where I was like, I’m happy, I’m comfortable, I can do whatever I want, I have that freedom.

    “So it’s like, OK now that I’ve made a decent amount, why don’t I just do more with my legacy?
    “Show the world that a boy who started in his bedroom can just become whatever he wants if he really puts his mind to something. 
    “And with that, I want to help more people, do more charity work, do more on the ground just to really help as many people as I can as well as making videos to entertain. 
    “As well as knocking people out and showing people that you can make something of your life, be healthy, be strong and just be a better person in general.

    “That’s what I feel like life is all about, just being a better person throughout this journey of life.” 
    KSI, 29, returns to the boxing ring tonight against millionaire nightclub tycoon-turned 9-0 boxer Joe Fournier, 40, on DAZN PPV.
    And he does so amid the sensational rise of his drinks company Prime, launched with old rival and now business partner Logan Paul, 28.
    KSI also continues to upload videos to his own YouTube channels all while running his newly-founded promotional company Misfits Boxing.
    But still the internet sensation somehow finds time to attend to all his various ventures – unlike others in the business.
    He said: “It’s all based on yourself, if you want to put more work in, if you want to put more drive into something, you can do it. 
    “After training, I find some time to show, eat, and then I make a video.
    “Then I play games and I’ll make another video if I really want to, or I’ll see what my schedule is saying.

    “I make time for everything, there’s what 24 hours in a day and you’re sleeping for what, eight hours of it? That’s 16 hours to do a lot. 
    “I’m training for about three hours, that’s stil 13 hours to do stuff. Are you telling me there’s no time to do anything else? 
    “I feel like, I’ve said it before there’s certain influencers, especially in the boxing scene that are being lazy, simple as that. 
    “They’re taking money and just being happy with that, I’m just thee trying to be the blueprint of you can be more and get more because of it.” 
    KSI knocked out gamer Faze Temperrr, 29, in January and his post-fight interview was gatecrashed by Fournier, 40, who demanded he be next.
    So he accepted the challenge and faces the biggest test in his boxing career against an opponent with prior professional experience.
    KSI said: “He wanted it the most. He’s a pro boxer, 9-0 and I thought, ‘Yeah, screw it, why not?’
    “Even after I knocked out Temperrr, he was there, in the ring, constantly getting in my face like, ‘I want this fight.’

    “He wanted to fight me, I had options but he wanted it the most so I was like, ‘Cool, let’s go, I love the challenge.’
