The NBA is looking into Memphis Grizzlies superstar Ja Morant using his hands and arms to mimic shooting a gun toward the Golden State Warriors' bench late in Tuesday night's game between the Western Conference rivals, sources told ESPN on Wednesday.
The league probe will also look into Warriors guard Buddy Hield's gesture ahead of Morant's finger-guns motions, sources said. League officials will conduct an investigation and talk to involved parties as soon as Wednesday, the sources said.
The incident occurred during a timeout with 20.1 seconds remaining in the Warriors' 134-125 road win over the Grizzlies.
