Hours after NBA commissioner Adam Silver expressed his shock at seeing another social media video of Ja Morant holding a firearm, the Memphis Grizzlies superstar released a statement Tuesday night acknowledging the disappointment he has caused those who have supported him.

The Grizzlies on Sunday suspended Morant from all offseason team activities, pending the league office's review of the video that surfaced over the weekend -- less than two months after Morant and Silver met to discuss a similar incident that resulted in an eight-game suspension.

"Honestly, I was shocked when I saw this weekend that video," Silver told ESPN's Malika Andrews from the NBA's draft lottery Tuesday in Chicago. "Now, we're in the process of investigating it, and we'll figure out exactly what happened to the best we can. The video is a bit grainy and all that, but I'm assuming the worst."

In the wake of Silver's interview with ESPN, Morant released a statement through his representatives, his first public comment since the video was posted over the weekend.

Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant said he takes “full responsibility” for his actions after his team suspended him for brandishing a firearm for the second time in a social media video.

“I know I’ve disappointed a lot of people who have supported me,” Morant said in a statement released Tuesday through his representatives, noting that he has “more work to do” to better himself.

“My words may not mean much right now, but I take full accountability for my actions,” Morant added. “I’m committed to continuing to work on myself.”

The Hill has reached out to Tandem Sports + Entertainment, the agency that represents Ja Morant, for comment.

This is Morant’s first public statement since the team announced on Sunday that it had suspended the star guard from all team activities after he apparently flashed a firearm while singing along to rapper NBA Youngboy’s song in a friend’s Instagram live stream.
