Setting the over/under on Ja Morant suspension at 27 games… that’s essentially 1/3 of the season. Odds of him being available opening night for 2023-24 season: 2,000/1 – 11:45 PM

Adam Silver said he believes shortly after the conclusion of The Finals the NBA will announce its decision on Ja Morant, who has been suspended indefinitely by the Memphis Grizzlies. Both the league and the NBA Players Association didn’t want to distract from The Finals. pic.twitter.com/vEQUVkrjz9 – 7:43 PM

Adam Silver on Ja Morant: “We’ve uncovered a fair amount of additional information. We probably could have brought it to a head now, but we’ve made the decision that it would be unfair to these players and these teams to announce that decision in the middle of this series.” – 7:39 PM

Ronaldo Segu (@SeguRonaldo) didn’t play in the NBA, despite making Ja Morant ecstatic. Nor did he manage to lead his team to Greece’s top division.
But he still achieved some admirable feats while getting support from several EuroLeague stars
