Ja Morant apparently has zero self-awareness, even after getting suspended for 25 games and losing millions of dollars for pulling out a gun on camera earlier this year.
Morant was cleared to play last week after serving out his suspension, but it appears that he’s going to get another call from the NBA’s league office for his latest celebration.
On Tuesday night, the Memphis Grizzlies beat the New Orleans Pelicans in overtime thanks to Morant’s heroics.
In overtime, Morant got aย game-clinching alley-oop dunk in the game’s final seconds.
After the dunk, Morant busted out the “rock ya hips” dance while appearing to do a finger gun motion towards the crowd.

Morant was clearly trolling the New Orleans crowd with the dance that had been done by LSU players this year.

Even if he was doing a popular dance, he should know that it’s probably not a good look for him to be doing aNything that resembles a finger gun celebration just days after he served a 25-game suspension.
Even Gilbert Arenas, who once got suspended for a gun-related incident, was horrified by Morant’s antics.
