Grizzlies' Ja Morant being investigated by Colorado police after flashing gun on social media

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant is being investigated by police in Glendale, Colorado, after he appeared to flash a gun at a nightclub in the city during an Instagram Live video over the weekend, Colorado police confirmed Monday.

Glendale police captain Jamie Dillon told the Associated Press on Monday they didn't receive any calls or complaints about Morant, but began looking into the situation after hearing about the video. Colorado has open-carry laws for firearms "regulated by local county and municipal authorities." NBA rules also "prohibit a player from possessing a firearm while on team property or traveling on team business," according to ESPN.
